I think Google needs to add a better way to secure old / previously inactive accounts. My guess is because your account was old, and your current device, IP and overall fingerprint was different it decided you were an intruder.
- marcinzm 4y agoRemoving pre-existing security measures due to suspicious activity seems an odd strategy.
