I was re-reading some chapter before I came across something. Prior to this I always assumed that tsukuyomi was used for torture as shown against Kakashi and Sasuke.

However in the battle where Itachi and Sasuke took on Kabuto Itachi mentions something intriguing.

Itachi said he would not only use Tsukuyomi to understand how to stop edo tensei but to also use it to control Kabuto. Before this I thought genjutsus used to control people were different from those used to torture them despite both types being used through the sharingan. I don't know whether this type of thread has been done before or not but what do you people think?

i think itachi wanted to use tsukoyomi to get kabuto to talk like sasuke did to zetsu but kabuto closed is eyes that is why itachi had to use a jutsu that does not maybe need eye contact(izanami)so kabuto dit not even know he was already trapped in a genjutsu. I don't think tsukoyomi can control somebody fully but it can torture and make you spill the beans according to uchiha nagashi only kotoamatsukami can fully control a person(even without them know).

Just because one uses mangyekou to cast sharingan isn't enough evidence that tsukuyomi is being used. Besides sasuke used his left eye against zetsu not his right like most people say he uses when using Tsukuyomi.

Sharingan has always had the power to hypnotize its victims, but tsukuyomi is a technique that puts the victim in the nightmare realm, a genjutsu world where the caster controls the victims complete perception of reality.
Sasuke has this Technique as well, but in the last time we saw his tsukuyomi his ability to control the technique paled in comparison to Itachi.

Same with 3 tomoe, the difference with TS is only the time control but that's genjutsu on genjutsu to make it seem like that:
