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.

Yeah that makes sense.

I thought extradition laws usually had some kind of clause like "only applies if it'd be a crime in both jurisdictions", but now I think about that I can't remember where I heard that or why I think it so I will admit complete ignorance.
