Legality has /never/ stopped th U.S. or any other government.  It was
illegal to invade Panama in '89.  The actions by a President to order this -
under any circumstances - were in direct violation of treaties to which all
OAS members were party.  The action of breaking this treaty is itself a
violation of US law - and an unarguably impeachable offense.

Backdooring software is small potatoes.

The NSA key in MS Windows NT+ has never been seriously dicredited - just
