It looks like some plans changed at the 11th hour. People on r/monero were saying that in the current climate, the seed nodes would be shut down and the Haveno Council members arrested.

So instead, it looks like the devs are just releasing the software, and there are to be multiple competing instances of Haveno. Anybody can create a Haveno mainnet, they are responsible for finding hosting, appointing arbitrators, setting maker/taker fees, and staying anonymous. The seed nodes are hidden behind Tor hidden services. If one instance gets shut down, several more can immediately start up. The Haveno and Monero developers avoid being operators or taking fees, which makes it more difficult to lawfare them.
