This problem has been discussed before, but I don't know the real
solution, if there is one. Because the Tor exit node (in my case)
appears to be in a diff country than one given to Gmail when opened
the acct (or the assumed country from my orig IP address), Google
thinks it may be someone trying to hack the acct. There may be
settings users can change in their acct to have Google (or other
providers) to contact in a case like this, other than sending your
phone #, to verify your identity. Don't think I'll be sending them my
phone #. I've never seen this or heard of them (or any site) asking
users to send their phone #. Yes, I'm sure I was on the real Gmail
login page - https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginAuth
When I set up my acct, I chose "security questions" for verification
(or at least if forget my password), but in this case, seems Google
isn't using that to verify I'm the real acct owner.
It might be possible to limit relays Tor uses to your country, but
never dealt w/ that. Others will know more than me.
_______________________________________________
Using StrictExitNodes 1 limits the nodes to whatever you have set for
ExitNodes. For example:
StrictExitNodes 1
#ExitNodes blutmagie
#ExitNodes blutmagie2
#ExitNodes cassiope
ExitNodes DynoTor
Would set the exitnode to DynoTor (in the UK). You can have multiple
uncommented ExitNodes. You can also select by country, for example:
ExitNodes {au} # Australia
Question: when you got this error were you playing around with
temporary cookies? Why not let TorButton handle your cookies or allow
cookies then securely delete cookies.sqlite afterwards? Then see if
you have the same problem.
