Do online games have a seperate set of regulations? I recall something regarding Breaks In Tempo being attributed to poor internet connections,
there is never any UI involved in online games, or perhaps that was just hearsay and lazy directing.

No online regulations from WBF yet. Most RAs had a minimal stab at it during the lockdowns. The EBU gave internet connection excuses full rope, FIGB left that decision up to TD (and my own policy was firmly that players are held responsible for remaining connected). Nobody got round to regulating the platform and its capabilities, in particular to conceal and manage tempo (although ACBL has distinguished itself by adopting tempo management in its own top level competitions).
