The question should be whether the CCP has a long game where the youth potentially being tracked and catalogued today are the leaders, politicians, diplomats, journalists, etc that may be of interest to have influence over in the future.
Generally with totalitarian governments, the propaganda and control is for domestic consumption to maintain their power, but this does also extend to nationals living abroad. However the CCP does have ambitions for empire in the shorter term that should be cause for alarm and vigilance.

Strong effort these to have “fact checkers” on anything potentially political. At some this will be the job of one government or another. Russia had the Joke department. Gotta make sure all jokes are correct thinking.
