Question: why pro-active block some authoritarian countries like the UK, but not others like China? Is it because only the UK passes legislation that threaten people outside of its borders? Or does China do it too and we ignore it?

China probably can’t get the USA to extradite an American citizen for breaking a Chinese law. The UK can.

Are there any examples in history of the US extraditing someone with no UK ties to the UK?

If you commit a crime in the UK then I would expect extradition to be a genuine risk.

It's a connected world, so online activities are probably pretty grey-areas. If you defraud someone (for example) but they're in another country, where did the crime happen?
