EFF档案法庭简介支持龙卷风现金开发商罗马风暴

著名的数字权利集团电子边界基金会（EFF）已提交了法庭之友摘要，以支持罗马风暴

A prominent digital rights group has filed an amicus brief in support of Roman Storm, a developer of the crypto privacy protocol Tornado Cash (TORN), who has been charged in relation to his work on the protocol.

一个著名的数字权利集团已提交了一份法庭之友，以支持罗马风暴，罗马风暴是Crypto隐私协议龙卷风现金（TORN）的开发商，后者因其在协议上的工作而受到指控。

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed the brief on March 23, arguing that Storm’s prosecution raises “larger civil liberties concerns that could chill the future development of privacy-enhancing technologies more broadly.”

电子边境基金会（EFF）于3月23日提交了摘要，认为风暴的起诉提出了“更大的公民自由的担忧，这些问题可能会更广泛地更广泛地散发出对隐私增强技术的未来发展。”

Storm has been charged with conspiracy to facilitate money laundering, operating an unlicensed money transmitter, and violating sanctions over his involvement in Tornado Cash, which allows users to conceal their crypto transactions.

Storm被控串谋促进洗钱，经营无牌的货币发射器以及违反对他参与龙卷风现金的制裁，这使用户可以掩盖其加密货币交易。

The EFF argues that the core issue in the case is the government's attempt to hold developers responsible for how their tools are used, rather than prosecuting the bad actors directly, which could have a chilling effect on privacy-focused software development.

EFF认为，此案的核心问题是政府试图使开发人员对使用其工具的使用方式负责，而不是直接起诉不良行为者，这可能会对以隐私为中心的软件开发产生令人震惊的影响。

“Nearly all privacy and anonymity protective software tools are dual-use tools. Like a physical mask or paper cash, they provide needed, often critical protections for users, but can also be used by bad actors to help hide their crimes,” the EFF wrote in the brief.

“几乎所有的隐私和匿名保护软件工具都是双使用工具。像物理面具或纸现金一样，它们为用户提供了所需的，通常是至关重要的保护，但也可以被坏演员使用来帮助隐藏犯罪。” EFF在简介中写道。

“But the government’s prosecution theory here would criminalize the developers of any dual-use technology for the bad acts of others if the developers knew or should have known that people were using (or might use) their technology for those bad acts.”

“但是，如果开发商知道或应该知道人们正在使用（或可能使用）他们的技术来实现这些不良行为，则政府的起诉理论将对他人的不良行为进行任何双重用途技术的开发人员定为犯罪。”

In the prosecution of Storm, the government is also relying on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), which allows the U.S. president to impose economic sanctions and restrict transactions during national emergencies.

在起诉风暴中，政府还依靠《国际紧急经济大国法》（IEPA），该法案允许美国总统在国家紧急情况下实施经济制裁并限制交易。

However, the EFF argues that this application of IEEPA is inappropriate, as it is being used to criminalize conduct that does not directly violate any sanctions regulations.

但是，EFF认为IEPA的这种应用是不合适的，因为它被用来将不直接违反任何制裁规定的行为定为犯罪。

“If the government believes it is appropriate to criminalize these technologies, it must seek relief from Congress and not rely on IEEPA and the other laws deployed in this prosecution, or, worse, attempt to bootstrap ancillary activities even further removed from any criminal acts into the ambit of these laws,” the EFF wrote.

“如果政府认为将这些技术定为刑事犯罪是适当的，它必须寻求国会的救济，而不是依靠IEPEA和该起诉中部署的其他法律，或者更糟糕的是，试图引导辅助活动甚至从任何犯罪行为中进一步撤离这些法律的范围。” EFF写道。

“Congress has the authority to pass a law that clearly distinguishes legal from illegal use of these technologies, if it wants to regulate them, but the prosecution in this case fails to provide that clarity.”

“国会有权通过一项法律，该法律明确区分了法律与这些技术的非法使用，如果它想监管它们，但在这种情况下的起诉未能提供这种清晰度。”

The TORN token has seen a significant rise in the last month, up nearly 50%, on optimism of a favorable outcome for Storm, according to market data from Messari.

根据Messari的市场数据，由于对风暴的有利结果的乐观，上个月撕裂的代币在上个月的增长近50％。

Storm is due back in court on April 25 for a hearing on several motions, including a motion to dismiss the indictment.

Storm将于4月25日回到法庭上，要求进行几项动议，包括驳回起诉书的动议。
