From the post:
"So there is potentially an entity called Tornado Cash that is controlled by certain individuals, and the web address and some of the Ethereum addresses in the notice can be thought of as either pseudonyms for that entity or, alternatively, as its property. At this point, we’re not offering an opinion on whether it was appropriate to sanction that entity—we do not know all the facts that have led to this action—but we would agree that there may be an entity behind those donation addresses and that said entity may be legally eligible for listing.

- woodruffw 4y agoYeah, I read that. The problem is that it just isn't compatible with the rest of the post: there are extended sections where they point out that the TCE can't be held responsible for the TCA, that even an IP-based case against the TCE would not apply, etc. etc. In short: they're trying to have it both ways, and it's not coming off well. If they had restricted their attention to just the TCA the argument would be more interesting, but ultimately still not compelling: everybody involved understands that there were some humans who decided to "pull the trigger" and deploy the TCA.
