Very powerful rule of thumb: If someone wants to build a Utopia by colonizing a new space that just so happens to be outside of any country's juristiction, 999 times out of 1000 they are trying to build a tech-dystopia.

The reason for this is that there is no incentive for a Utopia to be built removed from any pre-existing societies. There is no magical tech that existing societies simply refuse to use that could fix all of their problems, they are just really hard problems to solve. Starting fresh in an environment where life is unsustainable almost implicitly requires a separate society in a more favourable environment to sustain it. The caste-system is baked into the concept from the beginning.

In the end it all comes down to the plot of Elysium. A dystopia. Just a bit less extreme because that film was trying to tell the average idiot that it's a bad thing, while these people generally want to convince them that it's a good idea, actually.

The real "techno-utopia" is a walkable city with good public transport, high-speed internet, maybe some high-tech item/food delivery infrastructure to spice things up, and hopefully some glorified roombas to keep the streets clean.
