2 weeks ago started getting 'signed in from unknown device' warnings and having to go through steps to say it was me NOW about 20 a day....I have changed my password dozens of times but it just keeps doing it and I must sign in at every site I go to when before I did not?

Are you getting this warning on a specific website?

If you are using a VPN service (or even certain privacy add-ons), sometimes they hide your location from the website you are logging into. This makes the website think that your account is being accessed by an "unknown device". If you do have a VPN service running, see if turning that off fixes the problem.
