One has to be careful when flying. Your flight's origin or destination might not be in China, and may not even be through Chinese airspace, but if there is an in-flight emergency, an airport in China might be the closest landing spot.

Occasionally, they'll "stage" an in-flight emergency, forcing a landing in China and arrest you.

The US invented it.

This isn't something the average random GrapheneOS user needs to worry about.

Doing this has a non negligible political cost. They would only do it for a high value target. If you're that person, you're presumably aware.

The person(s)* this has happened to, was/were not aware.

* I only recall one news report of this happening years ago.
