No no no. This is just 100% bovine excrement. That is *not* common, except among tax cheats. You're supposesd to formally register to do business in each and every state where you have a physical nexus, even if it is only a rented mailbox. Those are the rules. And they aren't, like, ambiguous or anything. If you think otherwise, then please cite chapter and verse of *any* state law that says, in effect "It's OK. We're happy to allow you to do business with... and to possibly defraud... the people of this state, all while pretending to be located here, even without registering your business here." There are exactly -zero- such states that allow these kinds of shenannigans. >Have fun finding the state registration for AS11875. That's different. That ASN is registered to a "natural person"... *not* an incorporated legal (non-person) entity. Both you and the Supreme Court may have some trouble with this, conceptually, but there actually *are* still one hell of a lot of differences... both physical and legal... between natural persons and incorporated legal entities. As a natural person, you and your ASN have a right to move about, as you wish, from state to state within these United States. An incorporated business also has the right to move about from state to state, but every time it elects to plop it's ass down, rent an office, or even a mailbox, in any particular state it needs to register with that state in order to do so... *if* it wishes to conduct *any* business from that location. If you don't believe me, ask Amazon. Every state where they have a physical footprint is one where they are already legally incorporated. State officials are, in general, fairly persnickety about enforcing this simple rule because, you know, taxes. They want their cut.
