- Though a smaller tendency, the Extropians are notable because they ride a line between inner and outer system ideologies. Extropians believe in an economic free market with the absence of a binding legal system, so that all relations and transactions are based on individual contracts agreed on by all parties involved or affected. Contrary to the anarchists, the Extropians very much support private property and personal economic wealth; Extropian-owned corporations actively participate in the solar system’s hypercorp economy. Many of these corporations are worker- owned cooperatives, with workplace councils in local offices and an elected cooperative congress handling management. This puts the Extropians in a remarkable position where they interact heavily with both the hypercorps and autonomists but are not fully trusted by either.
- In Extropian society, law and security, like everything else, are contracted services. When entering an Extropian habitat, you purchase defense insurance from a local contractor such as Gorgon Defense Systems, who maintains automated drones and freelancers throughout the station who can come to your aid if threatened. Likewise, the only law that exists is what’s put into writing between two contracted parties. In case of disputes, both parties resort to a pre-agreed legal contractor to settle the matter. Some Extropian colonies utilize AGIs for failitating contracts and legal matters, such as Nomic on Extropia.

[hr] "Protocol again, Simon? You know that no one on this station will honor either your credit or your reputation, so why do you incessantly bother us with these pathetic vengeance attempts? Besides, the sum of the vengeance bonds leveraged against your alpha is so enormous that Mr Pu has invested in five people so far who wanted to make an exhuman attempt just so they could collect it! Now go to hell and stop calling us."@-rep +1

[hr] We would like to apologize for master. Someone had deactivated his Muse, and the poor man simply does not understand how to interact with civilized people. He has been lured back into his engineering art studio space and properly buffered. Please accept this donation of [1,250] credits from Sol Angel Telecommunications to one [MYRMIDONT, LLC] as a humble token of master's philanthropy and goodwill.@-rep +1
