IIRC, it IS regulated. GDPR and American equivalents have provisions that require companies to provide all of the data they have about you, and forbid companies from disabling accounts with automated systems without manual review. You may have to contact data protection authorities in your jurisdiction and file a report, then contact Apple's data protection officers and reference the report you made. I've had luck doing this with other tech companies in the past. It should be something that a person could manage themselves with a few days of persistence, but I suspect there are lawyers who would help with this as well. IMHO, the legal team at a big tech company would rather manually review an account and reinstate it, than take on the potential liability of having violated data protection laws. You just have to convince them that you know your rights and how to assert them, and there's a good chance they'll quickly comply with the law.
