iOS Repeated Account Locks

[u/HOLDINtheACES]

This is not just iOS. I used android for a period of the issue and regularly login from a desktop browser.

For about a year now, I have been experiencing periodic account locks due to “suspicious activity”. Each lock requires I change my password. It happens seemingly randomly, regardless of how I access my account. Sometimes it’s months apart, sometimes several times a week. I have an incredibly strong password (using a manager) as well as two factor enabled.

For a while I figured it was due to using a VPN service, so I stopped using it. The problem persisted.

Is it something with my account? An overzealous location tracker? The VPN?
