On: My GMail password scares me with its power

The post to which I replied says:

"The problem isn't your gmail password getting leaked, but some other site leaking your password."

Some other site could only leak your password if they've got the same one.

If he is stupid enough to give his email password to "find your friends" type websites, he deserves what he gets. OAuth was invented for a reason.
