Trump just signed an executive order that violates an international treaty.http://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/01/26 ... cy_shield/

Is that legal?

Because if it is, I'm going to have to move my wiki out of the USA.

Looking at the article Rob, there is a sub clause that states there is an exception to the executive order but it doesn't cover Mexico or Canada.

In theory, therefore – with the Judicial Redress Act law, the attorney general's designations due to become law in less than a week, and the executive order including a clear carve-out for existing law – the situation should be that the Privacy Shield agreement holds. The executive order would then only apply to countries outside the European Union – although Canada and Mexico are notably absent, which may have its own political repercussions
