Expelled from the planet by the first edict of the NeoTokyo COO, Chance Aspect, on New Years Day 304.
A key part of the Federation's willingness to tolerate NeoTokyo was the installation of Netwach, an "independent organization" charged with monitoring and preventing a technological singularity: emergent true AI, grey goo, paperclip maximizers, etc.

Many agents live in the offworld compound of Odaiba, and transporter to secure work sites near universities and research centers.
The story of a planetary-scale self-destruct of last resort is probably just an urban legend. Right?
Just the same, it was notable that the bombardment of the Federation enclave on Odaiba Island completely missed known Netwatch offices...
