On the other hand, the IRS can send you to jail. I think people like Intuit
(Turbotax) are more worried about the consumer suing them directly than
about 3d parties.
FWIW, for $26/yr I bumped the liability limit on my homeowner's insurance to
$1 million. I had initially explored the idea of a wraparound overall
liability policy, but concluded that the cost of the latter option was too
high relative to where my risk lay (a couple of hundred dollars a year).
The homeowner insurance angle may be a useful low-cost option for some others.
