> Credit Karma started offering free tax filing

This seems much like an "illusion of choice" situation. Credit Karma and Turbo Tax are both owned by Intuit. (Not that you were fooled by the illusion, just that it stuck out to me.)

Credit Karma spun their tax service off to Cash App. So Intuit doesn't own both.

Credit Karma had to sell their tax filing offering to complete the sale, so Intuit doesn't own it: https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN285275/
