IANAL, but i imagine it comes down to how many legit purposes tor has vs the ill...

Well the great thing about U.S.C is that you don't have to imagine, you can read the docs.

Measure of purposes, 'legit or otherwise', is not a law for anything ever.

Fun fact, usc does not apply to germany where the article is about.

But regardless, in both systems i am very certain your purpose ("intent") matters a lot. (Details depend on the specific crime in question)

All sorts of foreigners have been extradited for supposedly violating USC despite never stepping foot in America. They could argue the node operator facilitated money laundering that touched a US bank, that they conspired with a US person, a US CSAM victims likeness went through the node, etc etc.

USC has extraterritorial power about everywhere but NK, Russia, and Iran either formally or through influence.

Normally extradition requires the activity to be a crime in both juridsictions.

Not when the US asks.

Forest for the trees, compadre.

I distinctly believe you do not care to better understand the reality and the nuance, however.
