I think the main reason they sanctioned tornado cash was so that they can later prosecute any US persons who send funds there as having violated sanctions.

the status (decentralized wallet/chat ethereum app) has a terms of use that i have to agree to to launch the app. it says "you agree to use the status app in a way that doesn't harm or violate the rights of status, status app users, or others in any way".

the problem is that the app is supposedly f/oss.

so apparently if your smart contract gets sanctioned, you lose your personal github account.

sounds reasonable

It really shouldn't be legal to leave spent fuel above ground (or underground in things that can leak).

Finland solved this problem. The USA almost did with Yucca Mountain, but stopped and now all the hazmat is just sitting in thousands of rusty insecure sheds, waiting to leak into groundwater.
