I thought they were contributing to the Python web framework called Tornado (quite popular especially before asyncio caught on, but still well-known nowadays).
I was like "what's a tornado repo? a reference I don't know about to a whirlwind of activity? maybe a bot attack of some kind."

Some of my repos look like they were hit by a tornado and frankly deserve to be deleted
When your code is so bad that the US Government sanctions you, specifically

Just reading the comments, I also was thinking this was about Python's tornado library until I recognized it wasn't that. The title needs improvement.
CC @dang
I emailed a title suggestion switching to "... Tornado Cash ..." for clarification.
I wish typing "cc @dang" did something, but to the best of my knowledge it does not / isn't monitored vs email.
