They should invest in a mechanism to allow you to train the heuristics in advance. If the heuristic knows that location A is a location you normally login from and location B is not but you could tell it in advance "I'm going to travel to location B on date X for duration Y" it would have the extra necessary information to know that this activity is normal and not suspicious.

If I were working for YouTube I would be horrified at this video. This creator has gone from loving and synergizing with YouTube to looking for another platform. In fact, they already are on another platform, and just gave it a huge shoutout.
