Google is the holder of your information and manager of your identity
I don't agree with this. Google may be the locker in which you put your information, but you hold the key to it. If you decide to give the key to 3rd parties that's your responsibility.
People need to educate themselves about how their information can be used and abused. Perhaps someone needs to drive this education and perhaps Google can/should be a part of that, but they are in no way implicitly obliged.
If you write your password down on a post-it and stick it to your computer screen, is that Google's responsibility?
