The demographics of the app and its owner tick all the right boxes for a company like Apple, but even then, less serious violations would earn an app an insta-ban. My guess is the owner has friends in high places who are pulling strings in his favor.
Most likely, you're being sarcastic, but just to put this out there, that would be like me publishing an app where you just write text into a box and click submit and I promise in the app store info and privacy policy that submitting it just causes it to get erased, but the information is actually being sent to all your worst enemies.
