> People who used Tornado Cash themselves, even non-criminals, are marked as criminals because of the way the lists are maintained

Eh, they’re marked as suspicious. (Correctly.) But I don’t know if merely using Tornado would be enough to convict on in most competent jurisdictions.

Of course not, but merely using tornado cash would be enough to make many "regular" cryptocurrency exchanges refuse to work with you and/or ban you. Or even someone sending you transfer from tornado.cash, or receiving a transfer from someone that uses tornado cash. Tainting is unfortunately very inexact and heuristic based.
