Register a company/business.

Get a business phone number, mailing address, and credit card.

You're going to have to publish your name, address, phone number, etc when you have an app published on the app store

If you want to get around the individual privacy issue of this, you'll need a business anyway.

I bought a new SIM to have a new phone number, create a new email, registered a new Apple ID from a different IP, got to the step where I have to pay for the dev account and all of the cards I used got me an error. Banks saying Apple did not even try charging them.

What do you think is flagged here, your name, or banking info? Name pattern matching seems a bit unlikely/incompetent since sometimes people got identical names. Same phone? Maybe the IMEI part is flagged. Have you tried a residential IP?

Just in case you are on some greater shit-list (maybe by accident, by someone else's doing), I would take a moment to make sure you know how to behave when searched, got nothing too incriminating at home/your car (i.e. illegal drugs), your drives/backups are encrypted and your master password isn't pinned on a post-it. If your existence is bound to local data, make sure to have remote backups anticipating your devices getting confiscated.

Unless the country in which the business is registered makes corporate registrations (and officers) public.

Sure, yes, eventually your name will likely be published somewhere on some government site and their downstream scrapers -- but at least your personal address and phone number can be kept private.
