PANews reported on April 8th that, according to Decrypt, the U.S. Department of Justice on Tuesday rejected a new motion by Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm to dismiss his case based on a recent Supreme Court ruling. Storm's lawyers had previously argued that the Supreme Court's March 25th ruling in a music copyright case that internet service provider Cox was not liable for user copyright infringement should apply to Storm's case. However, federal prosecutors, in a letter to Judge Katherine Polk Failla, pointed out a fundamental difference between the Cox and Storm cases: Cox actively prevented user copyright infringement and stopped the vast majority of violations, while Storm knowingly failed to intervene when Tornado Cash was being used for money laundering. The Department of Justice also stated that there was no evidence that encrypted privacy services like Tornado Cash had a "substantial or commercially viable" non-criminal use. It is noteworthy that while the Trump administration has repeatedly promised to stop prosecuting developers of encrypted privacy software, it has insisted on a retrial of Storm.
