These sorts of organisations are less threatening than direct threats to family, which seem to have become the norm in forcing oversea Uighurs to go back.⁰ There isn’t really anything to stop this being applied to all Chinese. I don’t know any Mainland relatives, but if I were to receive a message from a Public Security Bureau threatening the livelihoods of several randomly chosen people I would still be a little shaken, regardless of how tenuous my connexion—and most Chinese are a little more dutiful in maintaining contact with relatives. This poses an unfortunate dilemma: if every Chinese person is a potential mole, what is a liberal democracy to do?
