If no official faction represents the NPC group who possesses the technology it may be used in the same fashion as the previous system: Namely by virtue of self governance and forum established fiction.
This is not at odds with my statement.
If a faction vanishes, its previous agreements (forum established fiction) and cell status (self governance) stand. That at least is what I think DL meant.
So there are no Mollies, but their tech is white for you. So any agreements they made before remain. New agreements are impossible until the faction slot is filled. Call it a period of restructuring if you want. I imagine it would be hard to re-establish a faction if people could access its technology on other IDs without asking anyone.
So, Mollies
Check previous agreements made by the faction, they will stand
Ships (the ones explicitly stated as being LR/Molly) - LR for now
Guns (the ones explicitly called Molly) - red cell for everyone unless you are a Molly.
