Well, the big legal limitation for these sanctions is that they apply only 'across borders' as OFAC can only sanction foreign entities (e.g. in this case asserting that TornadoCash-as-organization/project is controlled by North Korea), prohibiting U.S. citizens and companies from dealing with or assisting that foreign entity. |

There are a variety of sanctions mechanisms. Tornado didn’t have to be controlled by North Korea (it isn’t), just used by them to fall afoul of U.S. law.
