ChatGPT Pro account banned for "Cyber Abuse" after coding on own Mac; appeal loop shut by AI

A user says his ChatGPT Pro account — the working account for his property management business — was deactivated for "Cyber Abuse" after a 3-day dev sprint via Developer Mode on his own Mac. His appeal was denied in a day, support closed his email with an AI reply in 1 minute, and his new OpenAI forum account was put on hold. A long forum thread shows many others stuck in the same loop.
