Can someone who doesn't need to file taxes (IRS 1040 etc) get the stimulus check without providing personal information to a 3rd party?
The IRS site sends to a 3rd party website.
Is there a different way for someone not filing income tax to provide their information to the IRS? (Not necessarily online.)
While we're at it, is there a way for someone who does need to file a 1040 to do it online on the IRS site without the need for a 3rd party? (There should.)

If you don't want to send your information via third parties, the only way is to file a tax return using paper forms, which you can download from the IRS web site. Return processing will be slower, so you'll have to wait longer for your stimulus payment. Do enter your direct deposit information on the tax return, even if you don't owe any money, so the IRS will be able to send your stimulus electronically.
I agree, it should be possible to file directly on the IRS site, but H&R Block and TurboTax have spent millions to lobby your congressmen and senators.
