Not all governments restrict themselves to legal means. Turkey for example has recently started abusing Interpol search warrants to go after people outside their jurisdiction. The country of citizenship is usually clued in and is resisting but dare to go on vacation in a another country.

Not all actions of the US government have survived legal review and some may argue the latest administration is more prone to such accidents.

But then it becomes more a question of politics instead of (inter)national law.

Heck, the EU and US are already not on good terms on the subject of privacy/intelligence gathering, so i doubt this would be done so easily. Especially with the current US administration.
