Notes disappeared after accepting new T&C

I accepted the new Terms and Conditions, and all my notes disappeared. I had thousands of notes. Some from 2028 and 2019 have come back, but nothing else!

iPhone 8, iOS 16

Yes, the iCloud notes need to be removed but do not worry, they are removed from the iPhone, not from iCloud.
