what i noticed from you and a couple other similar stories in this thread is that a same email is used at multiple places. Have you looked into email aliases like simplelogin, anonaddy, or anything of that sort?

or at the very least, the basic username+alias@domain.tld? this let's you know at least which thing was compromised.

of course, I don't recommend doing the same for important services like you banking accounts, but for the vast majority, having an alias would be enough.

and compartmentalisation always helps (different emails/accounts for personal, govt, and work domains).

parisidau, I hope you get your account back.

you can in the meantime, and for the future, try compartmentalizing services you use. the old saying of "all eggs in one basket" applies here as well.

VPS, hard drives, etc. are cheap and keep you more in control of your own data than you're with big tech.
