That's not really the choices available. The options aren't NSA reports bugs/uses them for intelligence collection, its NSA uses bugs for intelligence collection or they don't find bugs at all.

Its possible that the right answer is we should have a US agency finding bugs and getting them patched, but it certainly shouldn't be any of the intelligence agencies. That feels a little too like putting the military in charge of the police force.
