Google can't safeguard our passwords?  


How to stay safe
.....
First, the best way to keep your account secure is to enable
two-factor authentication (2FA). This will stop threat actors from
easily accessing your online accounts, as a second form of
authentication through an app, phone, passcode or a physical USB key
will need to be approved by you. If you haven't already, find out how
to enable 2FA right now.
