Their first party account is an interesting read and available on their blog here:

The post was updated yesterday with the following:
Uh … yeah, it’s his livelihood. He writes books on programming with Apple machines. Of course he’s still going to do the things he’s been doing his whole life.
You don't need to host your "digital life" with Apple for that. Nor do you need to host it in a single place either.
of course ..
Yeah - this really confused me. Why did they make a second update on the 14th when the first update said they’d hear back on the 15th?
He's in Australia. It was already the 15th there when he posted that, but the person you're responding to isn't in Australia and the blog they copied and pasted from probably compensated for time zones.
Edit: Or it's a typo from a stressed and frantic person.
Even if this works, everyone cannot go through this process. Every Apple Fanboy be like, "this is why you have to buy two of every Apple product so if you get locked out of one half you still have your backup"
