Not sure if everything is correct, seems a bit too easy -
Let y be the horizontal width of the bottom-left-most rectangle, and x be the horizontal width of each of the rectangles directly adjacent on the right to the first one, so that the rectangle marked at the top right as having a vertical width of 3 now has a horizontal width of x + y.
Then, the area of each rectangle is 3x + 3y, as all rectangles have the same area.
It follows that the vertical width of the bottom-left-most rectangle is (3x + 3y)/y, and that the vertical width of each of the two stacked rectangles is (3x + 3y)/x.
Note now that the stacked rectangles have the same horizontal width, and therefore must have the same vertical width. Thus, the vertical width of the bottom-left-most rectangle must be 2 times the vertical width of each of these stacked rectangles, so (3x + 3y)/y = 2*(3x + 3y)/x.
From this, we get 1/y = 2/x (noting that 3x + 3y cannot be be zero), so x = 2y.
This means that the vertical width of the bottom-left-most rectangle is then (3(2y) + 3y)/y = (6y + 3y)/y = 9y/y = 9.
Therefore, the entire left side width is 3 + 9, or 12 units. Since the overall shape is a square, the entire square's area must be 144 square units.

Wouldn't the middle ground be to have ISPs ban TikTok? The US doesn't need to create a firewall themselves, they can just rely on the fact that internet providers are in effect an oligopoly, and simply tell all 5 or so of them to prevent their users from accessing the website/service. This would, of course, be circumventable by a VPN, but that's a degree of rigor good enough for China, so it should be fine here.
2^57 seconds is about 4.5 × 10^9 years, which is the age of the universe. They would only need that many stills because it would be possible to do a binary search on the footage, as each frame either has the bike in it or does not.
