I see. Well, my short answer would be this; In 2 Thess 2:3 the apostasy is alluding to a future event that has not yet come and since Satan has long apostatized, or rejected the truth, it's couldn't be referring to him.
If you go on further to verses 2 Thess 2:10-12, it's referring not to a single person but plural "they" referring to a group of people.
