you could say the same thing about tor, which was originally developed by the us military. it could be a long-term honeypot with backdoors, or it could be that giving it to the general public makes it more useful for state-sponsored clandestine operations. hard to say, really. |

There is no extra safe guards to encrypted email that lives on a server the more users you add. It doesn't matter. It was a point to point transfer once. All emails are SSL/TLS sent anyhow.
TOR is a different thing. It's active user browsing. If only US spies (example) used TOR, it would be pretty damn obvious what they were doing or at least show that this was vital traffic to inercept. But add in millions of normal users and it's much easier to keep your nefarious deeds hidden by just blending in with the crowd.
