I just tried it with Adobe Reader and it worked fine.

Are you sure you did this scenario correctly? My understanding is that Adobe Reader doesn't allow for any changes, including entering data into textboxes. I'll have to check it out.

Adobe reader has allowed that for a while. I've used it many times.
You may also want to consider OLT.com, which has free federal returns.

I just tried it with the Adobe pro edition (albeit from about 2012 or so), and got the same results you found. The form is definitely not coded correctly.

OK, I will presume that you have done this correctly, and will complain to my curmudgeon Senator.

Since blocking ads is stealing according to some, why blocking miners is any different, or even blocking malware?
I mean webmaster implied that cost of viewing the site is your privacy, I you don't like it, don't wa... oh wait, they already got your data!
I block:
- all scripts (only few domains white-listed)
- all cookies (only few domains white-listed)
- ads
- all referral info
Should I block anything else?

But can you see how they're similar?

I receive junk mail but receiving anthrax in my junk mail is quite different.

Stuffing my mailbox with junk so my actual mail cannot fit there is bit more troublesome than "me not wanting junk mail".

Perhaps you have a small mailbox.

Yes, it could be a case of mailbox envy... But I don't think that is relevant to the OP's question...

Please entertain us, but do it from perspective of a site owner.
Bonus question, please define boundary between ads and adware. I mean we should know when we're committing act of stealing and when we're just rightfully blocking something. Is this boundary universal for each and every user?
Btw. you conveniently skipped the first question.

Malware, short for malicious software, is an umbrella term used to refer to a variety of forms of harmful or intrusive software,[1] including computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, ransomware, spyware, adware, scareware, and other malicious programs.

Quite humourous, actually. Much like the entire Democratic party in the US. Hit them with facts, they respond with personal character attacks that have nothing to do with the issue. You can't win this one, Mladen - don't waste your time feeding trolls, unless you really enjoy it. But if you do, feed them with gusto, and have fun with it.

Ads are theft. Blocking ads simply protects you from theft.

"When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never tried before." Mae West
«... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12

To paraphrase, "When choosing between two evils, I prefer to try the one that's most likely to feel good."

And not blocking ads is stealing my concentration and time. Should I sue?
If you don't use an ad blocker, at least with ads, they are visible. How many websites tell you "this website contains an embedded miner, would you like to proceed with having someone else make some profit while you're visiting our website?"
Even worse, according to fhwa.dot.gov:
it requires the Federal Highway Administration to ensure that the State transportation departments maintain "effective control of the erection and maintenance" of signs, displays, or devices...
So yet again, I'm actually paying for ads through my tax dollars.
As an aside, given the text in the quotes (no, I really didn't make that up, it's actually on their website) one could have a field day with that.
The thing I don't understand is when people say it's stealing, or even here on CP, that ads help pay for the site. My understanding is that ad blockers remove the ad after it's been downloaded from the server, so exactly how is costing the website money? The ad is downloaded, what happens on the client side, whether I use an ad blocker or masking tape, shouldn't affect the website's revenue, right? If revenue is generated only when clicking on an ad, well, sorry folks, but being of at least some intelligence, I never click on an ad. So, where's the "theft"?
