You don't have the right to compel a third party to enable your free speech. And nothing is stopping Tornado Cash from running their own public Git server.

The USG is compelling all third parties to refuse to provide the sanctioned entities with any services, which includes publishing services. > nothing stopping Tornado Cash from running their own public Git server. They will need to find an ISP willing to sell them bandwidth, which may prove difficult.
