Helping criminals launder money is not a human right.

Guess that makes every government money printer complicit in money laundering, seeing how the majority of it happens through cash.

  It’s weird the crypto people think this is a valid argument. If someone did what tornando is doing with physical cash, they would also be committing money laundering.

    Tornado Cash is an anonymizer. Same as every cash drawer in every business. All kinds of money goes in - legitimate as well as illegitimate - and is mixed up together. Does shuffling a bunch of currency notes together - some of which might be from a drug dealer - make you a criminal?

      If your business only exists to shuffle money, then yes.

I would challenge you to prove that they actively advertised their service as such. Stop spreading misinformation.

  If our legal system was as dense as this statement, the world would be ran by criminals.

  You don’t have to actively advertise your criminal conspiracies for them to be criminal conspiracies. They knowingly facilitated illegal activities.

  Oh wow, I guess if I don't advertise I'm doing a crime then I'm not guilty

  Google "bitcoin financial oppression", and you'll find that cryptocurrencies are being advertised left and right as a tool to escape "financial oppression", or as someone less cynical would say, to evade financial regulations.

  Being a money mule makes you complicit in fraud or financial crimes. Running cryptocurrency code and using your own cryptocurrency wallet to help launder stolen money is a crime. People are expected to know better than to lend their wallet for "temporary storage" of money for a reward, especially if they don't know who the source or destination of the transaction may be. No company will advertise themselves as a criminal operation, even the dumbest thieves aren't that stupid.
