There has always been considerable spread, but the historical version of 
this group started out more or less centered around lower case 
libertarian.  You could also say it branched off from cryonics as 
well.  (Cryonics and for that matter the space colony bunch had a strong 
libertarian contingent in it, though members of both groups ranged far over 
the political spectrum.)

The drift in the high tech areas I know about has been toward evolutionary 
psychology, but there isn't a political ideology formed up around that yet.
