They'll send your users to a re-education camp where they can learn 
about possession of restricted/illegal tech. Where they will also not 
have access to e-mail and won't be able to participate in your list.

You can skip the middle part and just not let them subscribe to begin with.

(FWIW I've recently firewalled off a bunch of Baidu IPs because their 
crawler was ignoring robots.txt and hitting CGI scripts that require a 
small-ish amount of processing... never attribute to malice that which 
can be adequately explained by stupidity.)
