If you're willing to give and verify phone numbers, scans of government IDs, and other personal data, it's pretty easy to get your account unbanned. (assuming it works like facebook)

An impasse if you care about privacy, but less so if all you care about is staying on the site.

Perhaps by design. If you care too much about how much information you share, then Instagram / Meta aren’t interested in having you on their platform.
