So if you have a fake account with random info, better write the info before trying to log by TOr or VPN
Yes. Exactly.
I had this happen recently. Logged into an old account from a new IP addy. Of course, I could not remember the details and I was unable to regain access to that account.
Its not a biggie. I was using the account only for filtering purposes from my main account.
I'm not fond of gmail reading my mail. They must find it very boring. The main thing is I know they will still be operating next week ... next month ... next year.
I would be more concerned about a third party hacking my mail. Gmail has good security measures.
