Unless the Federation goes and finds him just to fuck with him. "Ha ha - we know everything that you're going to try to do!"
How would they know? Are you assuming Spock Prime told them?
Mmm. Wife soup. I must've done good.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Are you assuming Spock Prime told them?
Yes.
I mean, think of all Spock Prime (that's the old Spock, right?) knows. He'd be morally obligated to report on what he knows - or at least the stuff relating to people who would be killed if he didn't say anything.
I mean, imagine an episode of Angel where no one from Buffy told them that Harmony was a vamp.
OK, bad example....

I would have thought he'd be worried about changing the course of events, but I think he said at the end that it was not a concern of his? Since it's an alternate reality, time paradoxes are not an issue, but still.
There's a discussion going on elsewhere about morality, and now I'm just glad I don't have to make any important decisions about the fate of anyone's lives because I am very confused.

Oh, I don't know about that.
Did he go to live with the Vulcan colony that the survivors established, or is that something I picked up from fanfic?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
You know, it's nice to see that I am not the only person that confuses what I've seen in canon and what I've read in fanfic.

Art Crawl!!!
I thought he went to establish and take charge of that Vulcan colony. Of course, that may just be my insane take on things.

He found the site of the colony.
But Spock was going to resign and help establish the colony, so Spock Prime implied that he'd do that for him, allowing Spock to hang with Kirk.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I imagine they didn't get The Tick and Suddenly Susan over there, but the misconception of NC is pretty hilarious
Former: not that I'm aware of, but I miss a lot. Latter: we got Suddenly Susan.
The article's just badly researched. The Guardian can do better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ah, smoothing the course of true love.

Okay, thanks. I was fairly sure that had happened.
They should bring in the Guardian of Forever. That would be cool. Or the Hortas.
