I don't have the same suspicions you do, and I don't know of any evidence of Google willingly co-operating with the NSA beyond their legal obligation to, but it might make more sense for Google to spin off this team into a non-profit organization that they fund. Project Zero would get more credibility and independence, and maybe more publicity and contributions from the community. Maybe there's some kind of financial benefit for Google separating it out of it's org, but I don't understand corporate structures or finance even a little.
