Well, the thing is though, it's not that they were hosting users' data. It's not like they would be forced to provide the contents of users' communication.
I suppose they could be approached by someone to plant backdoor into the software, but I wonder if that can be done without someone noticing it...

If they put a backdor on the binaries, but not source, lots of people will be compromissed, and for a really long time nobody may notice.
EDIT: I normaly don't care. But this time I'd be glad if who downmoded this post explained why.
Yeah it could be a gag order from a secret court. maybe they folded because they were forced to compromise the code...
considering heartbleed... yes
