"Against", not "for". It was against the enemy being able to get intelligence about communications. And it was also not created for an intelligence agency, in case what's how you meant it. I'm really not sure what you're trying to say here.
If Tor was made for intelligence (agencies), why would anyone ever use it? Makes no sense.

It was extensively funded by DARPA and the Navy and released to the public so that there would be other users.
Iām not suggesting that the code of Tor is compromised, as it has been under the control of others for years. I am suggesting that military/intelligence interests have been associated with the network from the beginning and no doubt have significant presence in terms of infrastructure, etc.

So what does the US Navy use now?
