I wonder what heuristics determines &quot;last location&quot;. If it&#x27;s geo-ip then it&#x27;s ripe for &quot;10 years later that ip is now somewhere else&quot;<p>It&#x27;s probably a synonym for a join over geo, ip, cookie state on a browser or physical device a decade back when the OP last logged in.<p>If the account had some declared financial worth eg bitcoin key info, I could see a civil suit forcing function but aside from that lever I think it&#x27;s possible the public shame lever won&#x27;t work after 10 years idle time.<p>Keep logging in folks, even with redirection. Enable 2fa and get backup keys printed.
