On Tuesday a Dutch court sentenced the programmer Alexey Pertsev to five years in prison. The court found him guilty of money laundering because the "Tornado Cash" software he developed enables criminals to carry out completely anonymous and untraceable crypto transactions (so-called "crypto mixer")
I dunno. If you manufacture tools designed specifically for killing, for example, you’ve definitely played a part in somebody’s use of your tools for killing.
They’re not necessarily made for killing. Most people defending themself with a pistol (whose only purpose is for shooting humans) would not want to shoot for the head or chest
No, guns are tools designed specifically for killing. They have no use as defense if they can’t kill. They’re not shields. You also can’t hammer a nail with a gun, or cut a steak with a gun.
Uhh really hope that’s sarcasm…

I can’t think of many examples. Maybe electric chairs and guillotines.
Military weapons, which should be banned lol.
You’ve never heard of guns?

Ah yes, I forgot that all pistols have a “wound only” setting.
Was tornado cash made for laundering money?
My point is that gun manufacturers will say they make their products for defense, not killing. Knife manufacturers, same. Hammer manufacturers, same.
There’s very few products which everyone can objectively say are designed for killing.

You can sport shoot with them, you can hunt for food with them, and every military uses them…for mainly defense.
I’m downvoting you, but only because you wrote “whose only purpose is for shooting humans”, which is false statement.
Really, you could have used better examples like brass knuckles. They can’t be used for anything else other than injuring and killing people.
You hoped right.
Well apparently the rest of the people here didn’t get the memo
