    This is very explicitly about North Korea (and others) running their ransomware operations at a profit through tornado cash.

    I fail to understand how different that is from the examples cited by @SineNomineAnonymous . They are charged with "hav[ing] failed to address their use as illegal money laundering services. ". Did @torproject manage to address their use as a child porn sharing service?

      There is a significant difference between enabling cash flows and enabling the exchange of jpgs (only). If Tor had a payment service included that was developed for and used 99% to enable paying for CP, it would be also justified to charge the developers of that payment gateway for aiding in the creation of CP.
