Cointelegraph, it would be fair to include a link and mention that the opinion is absurd, just like my case. Of course, I don’t think Google and OpenAI should be held liable, and I ended my post by saying that toolmakers are not criminals. I’m sure OpenAI and Google will do everything they can to prevent misuse, which is another major topic of discussion and controversy these days. Another important distinction is that those companies are in 100% control of their services, while Tornado Cash is not under my control or anyone else’s. Don’t take my word for it; read the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision in the Van Loon case. That’s precisely why Tornado Cash is still working today and no one can do anything about it. Yet I’m being prosecuted for allegedly failing to prevent its misuse, even though no one can provide a technically viable way for me to have done so. The DOJ presented expert testimony claiming otherwise, but that testimony completely disregards how the technology actually works and is based on imaginary, untested theories. Any competent technical expert can explain why the proposed measures would not prevent 100% of misuse.
