Google 2 step verification

[Pathgil]

I have a camera which I use google nest for.   I've had it for about 3 years.  I do not have google twe step verification enabled for anything.  If I don't have the tab for the camera in use I have to sign in again when I click on the tab.  It's a little inconvenient but no big deal.  About a week ago Google started asking to verify every time I  sign in.  This is becoming a real problem...  I made no request to have  two factor verification, furthermore it keeps asking now every time I have to sign in which I may have to do often when I am online.  It's my home computer.  How was this change implemented and why.  I tried what I could.   I checked google to see if I have 2 factor verification enabled and I don't.  I've tried everything to the point that I am ready to throw it in the trash.  If I do that I will no longer need nest and I will discontinue.
