### Region

USA

### Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

im using the nightly build with a system config file. that is it.

the config file contents are: 
```
$ cat /etc/yt-dlp.conf

--cookies /home/ubuntu/PycharmProjects/cookiesRefresher/cookies.txt
```

the cookie file is refreshed every 24 hours and uses a dummy google account.

this setup used to work less than a week ago but now is broken. i havent changed anything. 
today google asked me to verify this acoount. i verfied with a phone number and i was able to play videos on the same machine on a firefox browser.

### Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

- [X] Run **your** yt-dlp command with **-vU** flag added (`yt-dlp -vU <your command line>`)
- [ ] If using API, add `'verbose': True` to `YoutubeDL` params instead
- [X] Copy the WHOLE output (starting with `[debug] Command-line config`) and insert it below
