So registry with a state apparatus does inhibit you to bend to their will, in one sense. 

But does the creation of a company itself does this not create the entity that which you the individuals put forward to be recognized as a single direction that many individuals are working towards? 
I'm still failing to see how a group of people agreeing upon a set of principles and goals together and calling themselves a company stops them from calling themselves whatever they wish.  

The definition is as follows

A company, abbreviated as co., is a legal entity representing an association of people, whether natural, legal or a mixture of both, with a specific objective. Company members share a common purpose and unite to achieve specific, declared goals. Companies take various forms, such as:

voluntary associations, which may include nonprofit organizations
business entities, whose aim is generating sales, revenue, and profit.
financial entities and banks
programs or educational institutions

Its says both NATURAL AND LEGAL so you can have a natural agreement without any ordained state blessing to be such a company as just an agreement between individuals (as was traditionally the norm before governments ever existed) that can operate together outside of government permissions. 

So to say that a company CAN NOT exist without the states blessing is a fallcy and a complete ignorance of the history of companies. 
   

 A "legal entity" is subsidiary to the State no matter what name you give it.
 

 so much love of that State approval out there.
