I had the same issues with Google Docs, but now I always share documents as "public if you have the link," and send out a link. I have yet to regret trusting people to keep documents as private as I request. I also just email people URLs to hangouts, instead of going through any Google UI. That also works without fail.

> I have yet to regret trusting people to keep documents as private as I request. Keeping shared content private is always to a large extend a matter of social trust. No technological solution can fully enforce permissions that you have chosen. Even if you require Google login and explicitly specify a group of people that can access a document, an allowed person can still copy-paste the content and share it with a larger group, or simply tell others about the content.

  IME it's less about the content leaking and more about an anonymous party making weird edits to the document and you not noticing
