Why can't I sign in to my Apple Account to create an app-specific password for notarization?

I need to notarize my software, however when I try to sign in to account.apple.com the website hangs (during the "load" animation") after I enter correctly my credentials and two-factor authentication code. I've tried cleaning cookies, cache, using a Windows device, using Chrome, Firefox and Safari (typing my password, using passkeys), and ALL methods simply don't work, the Apple never finishes the Sign In. The site status is OK. I simply don't understand, how come a simple login just don't work?

If you’ve not already done so, and given it’s related to code signing, contact Apple Developer Support.

Looks like all the servers are running, though there is some maintenance planned on 10-May.

The developer support folks are also more likely to read postings over in the developer forums, not so much around here in the end-user forums. Here is the code-signing forum:

PS: If there are any “coffee shop” VPN clients installed, remove all of them, restart, and try again.
