No problem, you made a good point.
In any case, my main beef was that relying solely on IP is a pretty shitty way to deal with this on Google's part. They make you jump through hoops and establish over half a dozen ways of proving who you are (user & password, secret question & answer, secondary emails, OTP codes, secondary auth codes, phone SMS, phone confirmation – which are behind phone unlock) and none of that matters when they don't like your current IP? Then what are they for?
Makes total sense. Good luck figuring it out. :)
