Urchins

Among the human inhabitants of the moons of Olympus, there exists perhaps no group so universally reviled as the urchins. Though their names varied from settlement to settlement, their way of life was the same. The first urchins had been poor and homeless, living on the lowest levels in alleyways and decrepit slums. Yet, with time, those shanties grew and grew, until eventually, those ramshackle collections of outcasts formed a relatively cohesive identity. Between the towering skyscrapers that covered the surface of so many of Olympus' moons, the urchins made their homes, filling alleyways and street from the ground to the sky, like spiders building a web or ivy growing unchecked. Many urchins wander from settlement to settlement, but few ever escape their nomadic background, for better or for worse.

Criminal Reputation
In addition to disrupting traffic and contributing to rampant overpopulation without paying rent, urchin settlements also: there was no easier place for a petty criminal to escape into than the convoluted network of shanties the urchins called home. It certainly didn't help that a recognizable number of these petty criminals tended to be dressed in the garb of the urchins themselves.

Intolerance of Artificial Intelligence
Both before and after the singularity, urchin encampments were frequently harassed or attacked by drones or androids, sent anonymously by frustrated locals, disadvantaged elites, or established authorities seeking to quietly circumvent regulations protecting the urchins. The gentlest of these intrusions would create loud noises or revolting smells in the hopes of driving the urchins elsewhere, but some were far more violent. Mindless drones would vandalize shops and homes, assault women and children, and write aggressive slurs and propaganda on the walls, while more advanced, sentient androids would pose as urchins and infiltrate their society, destabilizing them from within.

Outraged and frightened, the urchins soon began to take counter-measures. Over a few years, the urchins managed to scrounge together and distribute the tools they would need: magnets, scanners, electromagnetic pulses, and any other detection system or weapon useful solely against machines. No longer would artificial intelligence of any kind be allowed to enter their settlements, else they face the consequences.
