Not everyone wants to be swatted in exchange for the legal protections and funding opportunities granted by forming a business creates.
To address your concern, I think the problem is that a) the address is publically available in your country, and b) your police is so violent that they weaponize prank calls to lethal threats. That's an issue of shit policing.
The idea that you can exercise power in society and have zero accountability and demand to stay anonymous is either a) an cyberpunk fantasy, or b) a cleptocrat's dream.
The owner of the company being anonymous or not is not relevant here. These things can be done by people other than the owner and these people are already anonymous.
>That's an issue of shit policing.
It's an issue with every service. You can get prank pizzas, prank Uber eats, prank door dash, prank packages, prank letters (glitter, stinky, etc), etc. Almost no one ever validates addresses before a service uses them.

I never required the former. There could still be a process to make anonymously owned businesses accountable.
There's a lot of steps between "call from random kid" and "smash someone's door down" that cops choose not to take
Classic false equivalence. Being shot to death by overzealous and unaccountable swat teams is NOT the same as getting delivered a pizza you didn't order.
You really have to have a reality check when you go beyond the basics of using an LLC and structuring ownership and loans to make it very difficult to sue your company and make sure that these will really work in practice and not end with you being held in jail for contempt until you release the information.
