Sure; but there's a world of difference between communicating with a webapp that claims to protect your privacy even from the NSA (but actually cannot) vs. "any regular application", which makes no such security claims, and from whom savvy users won't expect that kind of protection.

People with important information to communicate that they must protect from the powers that be (quite possibly to protect their own lives) will seek out secure methods; at the same time, the powers they're avoiding will be targeting secure communication methods.

This application doesn't protect communications from the owners of the application under any circumstances. Forget about the NSA.
