It's just today's reality.
I hired an accounting firm to handle the taxes for my parents estate.
When the IRS gave them flack for doing their numerous clients' taxes on a computer, but still submitting only hard copy to the IRS, they told the IRS that, "Unless you guaranty us that no one can gain access to our clients' information, we are going to continue to send in hard copy."
The IRS offered no such guaranty and just dropped the issue.
No one is immune, not Apple, nor the IRS.
That's about insane! :E That accounting firm is way behind the times and doesn't understand the problems or technology at all. The same information still winds up in the computer after the IRS keys it in from the paper forms and is just as hackable as if they had e-filed it. They will have to send it in electronically in the future as all tax preparers are required to do so unless they prepare a very few returns.
