Websites don't recognize my computer

Websites continually log me out, or say I'm using a 'new device'. I have to reenter my login every time I close my computer! [Chrome, Hotmail, Facebook.... ] This seems to have started when I was traveling around the US and logging in from different locals, sometimes with my VPN and sometimes not.

MacBook Air 11", macOS 10.14

Cant log into some sites I am having problems logging into some sites on my Mac computer. I can log into these sites easily on my iPad . I cleared my history and shut down my computer and was able to log in but only for a few days and back to not being able to log in. Any ideas on what is going on? Thanks

Can’t sign into any websites (MacBook) In need of desperate help. I can’t sign into websites with my MacBook for the past 2 days. Safari, Firefox, Brave. Doesn’t matter. I go to a website and auto fill knows my username & password. I click sign in, the page loads for a second then throws me back to the sign in page. I’ve tried this for at least 6 websites. All same result. My iPhone works fine. Does anyone know what’s going on with the MacBook and how to fix ? Really need it working again MBP running latest version of Mojave thank you

Lost access to all websites Hi all, On 10.15.7, MBP16" I cannot access ant websites apart from Apple and iCloud. That's on any browser, not just Safari. Safari: can't establish secure connection. Chrome: The connection was reset. Apple and iCloud take quite a while to load, but once loaded they run quickly. The WIFI is confirmed in order (another MBP + 2 iPhones), so it's clearly a software issue of some sort. Any brilliant ideas?
