Google logon is required to post things to youtube, and other places. I, of course, post conservative comments, links, etc. Today, for the second time, I was unable to log into Google, and when I try to recover, I'm locked out. Anyone else have this happen? The last time it happened I had to start a new Google account from a different email address.

Happened to me like 10 years ago.
I had a new account, not a real name as I felt something is wrong and posting from the main account might be risky, so I chose other name.
Over the I started to like my second personality more than the original one.
At some point they've blocked the account, which proved I was right in the first place, being careful.
Finally they've managed to link my 2 accounts as I saw weird question asking “Are you (the second account name)?” when trying to login to my main account. I responded “No”. They haven’t blocked my main account but they’ve stollen (blocked) around $2,000 from by AdSense account on the main login and never paid it.
Should've used a VPN and a different browser dedicated to just that other account. Either your IP address or your browser's fingerprint is what tipped them off.
