That's very silly. Between all of the people capable of spying on you, it's exactly your own country that has the most ability to harm you. The Chinese government can't arrest you if you're not in China, but your government can.

- mirimir 8y agoThat's generally how I see it. For the most part, other countries don't care much about you. You're only subject to their laws in particular circumstances. And taking you into custody is relatively complicated and expensive. But there are exceptions. China has gone after supporters of the Dalai Lama globally. Dropping malware, backdooring servers, etc. But yes, they can't arrest you. The US, on the other hand, has more "friends". Consider The Pirate Bay. Even Russia has turned over "cybercriminals".
