The whole point of this post is to find a formal definition of "something like blackmail" (maybe "threat" instead of "blackmail" would have been a bit better, but "threat" also means a lot of other different things).

I agree that maybe starting with an informal definition of "what is meant by 'blackmail' here" may have been better.
