In my country "tools designed for hacking" (simplifying legalese a bit) are illegal, but I'm not aware of anyone who was sentenced purely because of this. I think it might've been an additional charge during trials of actual cybercriminals.

Indeed. If they raid your house for running a Tor exit node and find nmap installed, they'll add on a hacking tools charge to your running a drug marketplace charge and your money laundering charge, and in court, the hacking tools charge will actually stick because you actually did that.
