I know of a group that started a classical christian school for K-12 a few years ago. Even though it has teachers, uniforms, and Mon-to-Fri school days, it was incorporated as a "home school co-operative" and is run as a ministry not as a formal private school. This was done intentionally after the state exerted its authority over even private schools during COVID. But the state also has pretty lax rules regarding what constitutes homeschooling, to include parents taking advantage of 3rd party resources.

It's worked wonderfully, and is a great example of reducing legibility to the state (even within the state's own framework).

Alcoholics Anonymous would be an example of a relatively prominent and large organization whose membership is (hopefully) "illegible."
