I tried to log in to their site and was hit with a KYC requirement--and I don't recall ever getting an e-mail with the news about that.  Anyone know the story behind this? 

Not surprised, since I've been thinking that anonymous exchanges are going to become extinct for quite some time now, but Kucoin was one of the last ones with a decent reputation.

That's strange and also sort of alarming. I've been logging in and out of my account normally for the past couple weeks from a US IP address. I haven't seen a thing about KYC. I still have a 2 BTC/day withdrawal limit listed on my account.

I was also able to withdraw a few thousand USDC just now without issue.

Are you sure this happened on Kucoin? Could it have been a phishing site? I don't see any news about this either.
