This is actually very encouraging, that other athletes take this stand. This could be setting a precedent and could start a trend.

"However, AIDA Taiwan on Thursday issued a formal protest on its Facebook page condemning the organizer for failing to discuss or inform it about the change, the "reckless" method of dealing with Chinese censorship, and it warned that it sets a bad precedent that could lead to the flags of other countries being banned as well." (emphasis added)

But, again, the reaction of other athletes sets a good precedent for dealing with this sort of interference. China does not hold all the cards here, nor do other governments.
