Google "locked" my gmail account for the last ~24 hours.
I was not asked to change my password or to provide a phone number.
Message on web signin:

"Sorry, we can't process your request right now
For security reasons, Google may sometimes deny logins in cases where
we believe the account's password could have been stolen. [...]"

After trying a few web signins I was asked to change my password and
regained access.

The usual 'Suspicious sign in prevented' email arrived.

Exit relay:

Is google only using the source IP address as input for its 'bad-guys'
detection or is it also taking other things into account (like user
agent)?

I finally decided to switch to another email provider, this is my
new email address :
BM-2D8suxrLhg2K6H4t4TCsGrNeJQAzPxH1EZ at bitmessage.ch
Please do not use tagnaq at gmail.com anymore - thanks.

OK, while typing this email my gmail account got locked again.. so
this email is coming from my new email address already.
You may verify the authenticity of this claim by verifying the GPG
signature of the attachment (it is signed with the key I used to sign
all my mails with).

regards,
tagnaq
