It's well known the EU doesn't like Google and Facebook because of how disruptive they are; culturally and economically. Please don't insult my intelligence and say that France would have voted to hurt some of the most innovative (and financially successful) companies in the world if they were French. Be real.
Macron went all "Start up France" and was trying to attract some talent that would have been in the United States but can't due to Trump's habits. Every European country would vote another EU country out of the EU if it meant gaining Facebook, Google, and Twitter.
And Europe is irrelevant when it comes to consumer internet companies. That's just calling a spade a spade.

Luckily the EU does not consist of just one single country. > Every single European country would vote another EU country out of the EU if it meant gaining Facebook, Google and Twitter This is honestly so ridiculous, I am starting to wonder if you even know what the EU is. You are aware that it is a large union of countries that keep each other accountable and help each other, right? No single country could ever get rid of another country. > And Europe is irrelevant when it comes to consumer internet companies. That's just calling a spade a spade. Wow...just wow...
