Weird. I haven’t downloaded anything for a month or so (other than running into a different issue on somesomething), but I haven’t had to do that for any video for the several years I’ve been downloading.
Any IP on the local ISP requires a google login to work. Very few work without the cookie generated from it.

Is this maybe much more common on common VPN IPs? Not what I think you meant by “local ISP”, but would make a lot more sense to me.

It wasn’t that way until earlier this year. I switched to a vpn to get around it.

It is definitely more common on VPN IPs, since Google likely identifies the outgoing address as a datacentre, and gets suspicious.
