Crazy amount of misinformation in this one post:

> If you don't want your transactions to be public, don't use a public ledger.

That's exactly what people were attempting to do, with Tornado.

> You don't get to launder your money

There is no money laundering available with Tornado, it doesn't turn an illigitimate source of funds into a legitimate one. And it also has a compliance tool to allow proof of transfer between accounts.

> Tornado Cash wasn't free, there was a fee which as I understand it was sent back to various developers.

This wasn't sent to developers. It was a fee you would pay relayers to propagate transactions on the network and was optional. You could choose to fund withdrawals with a relayer or to use funds in your own wallet.

> Money laundering

This isn't money laundering.
