Are the NSA spying on us via BitStrips?

An absurd message is circulating that claims popular Facebook app BitStrips is actually a ploy from the NSA to spy on Facebook users.
The popular BitStrips application on Facebook, that allows users to “cartoonise” themselves in various different scenes, has enjoyed success not afforded to many other Facebook apps, with millions of users across Facebook using the application.
And with viral success often comes

nonsense, and BitStrips is no different. A message is running rampant on Facebook that the application is actually run by the National Seurity Agency. The message claims the leak derived from famous whistleblower Edward Snowden, and claims the NSA “knew their spying would someday be made public” thus created the app to spy on people a “legal way”.
