If they become pure providers of the service and not "owners", it might take off. Think about it, if the gov or any org goes to a say xyz online vendor and asks for all the user names and passwords. Sure they might give usernames, but passwords? How can they? (if the company has updated engineers and architects) XYZ would be storing only hashes of user passwords etc.
And of course I bet the folks working on this must be aware what they are dealing with.
Remember the fluff about gmail when it was starting... all the stuff about google parsing email and givng specific ads?
