Yes, they aknowledge this fact. And yet they explicitly forbid embedding
these secrets into (F)OSS applications. See
https://developers.google.com/terms
Section 4b, first paragraph.
So what Thunderbird and many other applications do is against these
terms of service. Google can at any point revoke the client id and ban
the corresponding developer account.
Maybe the FSF should simply register a client id and secret and make it
public for any GPL application to use.
