I am not a native speaker but in my experience it is an accurate use of the word “forced”.

English speakers generally use this word in a very broad sense “and now Netflix is forcing ads on paying users”, “because there was no sink, I was forced to drink the whole thing”. It is only when you are literally describing a crime where this word has this strict meaning you are alluding to.
