Ok sure. A Government can do whatever it wants in collaboration with another government. regardless of laws, rights, morality, or anything that can be enforced via violence. But I don't really see that as a "gotcha" or something that you should bring up in normal conversation.

    So let me ask you directly. Am I, as a US Citizen, living in the US, and currently in the US, subject to German Laws? To be clear I understand that extradiction treaty's exist. But that only applies if I break German Law, while I'm in Germany, not in any other situation.

    If you operate a buisness in Germany and do something with that that's illegal in the US as well you might actually be but I don't think that applies for the super rich tbh, no one of them will ever go to jail, the best we can hope for is a beheading in some revolution or by some terrorist group!
