Recently Google started prompting me to use my phone to confirm logins every time using my phone. I went through the recovery process just to make sure that I would be able to access my account and was asked the month and year I opened my gmail account. I have had my gmail for 17+ years and I have no idea when I opened it, and now if I ever lose my phone I will be locked out of my account. Does anyone know where I can see when I opened my account? I travel year round and rarely keep a phone number for more than a few months, 2FA has increasing ly become a problem for me as more and more companies force it on me. Paypal for instance is completely unusable for me, I have been locked out of my own account numerous times.
