Chinese influencer "Yaya" is leaving Taiwan, after her residency permit was revoked over social media videos that immigration officials said advocated unification of Taiwan and China by force. Earlier in the day, she protested the decision asking her to leave Taiwan by midnight on Wednesday. She was met by around 100 counter-protestors, who shouted at her to "go back to China."
