A weird login attempt from a coffee shop in Seattle last month made me check my settings

I got an alert for a sign-in from a city I wasn't in, and it turned out an old device I'd left logged in was still active. Has anyone else had a scare from a forgotten tablet or laptop?

Found an old Kindle still logged into my Amazon account. It was in a box in the attic for two years, but apparently still checking for updates. Made me go through and log out of everything on every old gadget. That little alert was a good kick in the pants.

@gavine41 that kindle was probably still trying to download a book you bought in 2019. Good reminder to check old stuff though.
