I got GitHub destroying 2 accounts of mine after doing something very similar. First try I thought it was a mistake. Second time i realised I was actually getting caught by some internal AI.
Could you appeal it and offer to change the email to a non-banned domain? Because that's quite severe, your GH account has all your repos, issues, and repo forum posts.
I tried, they answered something along the lines of "this account is unrecoverable due to guidelines blablabla". I had nothing, maybe a couple of issues in some repos, nothing illegal at all.
