Hello, that is because I did not write any documentation about that. 
TiddlyDrive consist (currently) in two parts: The plugin side and the 
server side. The server side Is a Google apps script published as a web 
app. The google apps script should be published for "anyone to use". I'm 
thinking in how to make the server part config as easy as possible. 
Probably I will end asking the user to make a copy of my script and run 
some kind of "setup" function. I also have plans to create a control panel 
to setup the server, so you only have to open the code editor once.

Currently the security is based in its lack of popularity :P As I said, the 
script runs as the user that owns it but it should be publicly available 
for anyone to run it. This is obviously a risk but users can only upload 
and download tiddlers, but not delete them. Also the application is 
"sandboxed" and it only operates on a particular folder of your drive and 
not the whole drive.  I have plans to implement user and password 
authentication, but this will take some time and in the first version the 
username and password will be coded directly on the script which code can 
only be viewed by you and have all the security a private google drive 
document can have.
 
Anyway, I think there is not much to worry about, I saw this setup several 
times in many public projects and no one was harmed. There was a lot of 
crap things because many of them were tutorials and provide live examples, 
but that was all. The URL of the script is pretty ugly and long and there 
are not many chances that someone with bad intentions finds it out.

Let me know privately or post up the process for setting this up if you are

I will let you know when the first private version can be tested. If I 
don't say anything in a week or two feel free to contact me again.

Thank you for your kind words.
