Not really because "Chinese" is being used here as an indicator of nationality, not ethnicity.
I disagree with using it that way because it feeds into the CPC's propaganda mission to conflate the ethnicity of "Han" with citizenship of the PRC, which aids their cultural imperialism ('Taiwan is "Chinese" and we are "China" so therefore people in Taiwan are our people!'). Also the definition is being stretched to include anyone with even the vaguest ethnic ancestry from within territory ruled by the PRC or historic empires ("China" is a word that basically means "empire")
Anyway I agree that people from the PRC are more used to throwing up their hands at invasions of privacy since the government having total insight into your life is a given there, and to many a positive thing (they may believe it keeps them safe). I also believe that growing up as one of one billion people gives one a sense of useless anonymity - who cares if someone sees your clipboard, there's just too many people for it to matter.
