    Not at all, if you understand why they created it and how they use it

      The point of making of open to everyone was so they’d have other traffic to hide their own secret communications amongst, right?

        Yes. In order to launder your dirty traffic, you need to mix it with lots of other traffic. And you need it to be safe to avoid attribution.

        The US military (and various 3-letter agencies) needs the service to be secure, provide strong anonymity, and to include a sea of traffic thats mostly not their own
