"Professor re-uploads Tornado Cash code to GitHub for research purposes
A professor of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University re-uploaded Tornado Cash and Tornado Nova source codes to GitHub, saying he has been using the code for teaching purposes."

It's for educational purposes, so I don't see why the code can be re-uploaded in the first place. But that's up to the government to decide. I really am against censoring code, especially when the same represents freedom of speech. How you will use that code (either for legitimate or illegitimate purposes) depends entirely on you. Again, I believe the US should've sanctioned the individuals using Tornado.Cash for illicit purposes than the mixer protocol itself. Everything's messed up now, so I don't think developers will dare to make another privacy solution on ETH (or any other chain) ever again.

I hope crypto advocates and industry leaders stand up against the decision to censor the use of Tornado.Cash for the good of crypto/Blockchain tech. Coin Center mentioned it will be taking this to the court, so I think there may be light at the end of the tunnel after all. Just my thoughts Grin
