Answer 1

trying switching the < to >.

request.time will be the time of accessing the document while resource.data.date should be the creation timestamp of the document.

try using this for your security rules:

    allow read: if request.time > (resource.data.timestampPropertyName + duration.time(1, 0, 0, 0));

duration.time(4, 3, 2, 1) will create a four hour, three minute, two second, one nanosecond duration.

Do remember to wait for sometime after saving your security rules for it to take effect!
