The App Store rule reads more like the platform itself needs the ability to block users, not the users on the platform. Which X has but they barely use it. I wonder when the german court system will punish X because they have ceased to follow the NetzDG (oversimplified: Ban users who violate the law) and there is no one on the platform to enforce NetzDG.
The Google Play Store rule seems like it's about users though...
