Actually, there's an "easy" way out for Google & Co: set up a EU subsidiary and allow them to run autonomously. Il will be subject ONLY to EU laws, on EU servers... but with US technology... and money (ONLY and not datas) will flow back to the US ! As a side effect: Google.EU will be able to use the "full" power allowed by GDPR (european data & world data) as Google.WORLD will "only" be able to use world data excluding EU. But maybe Google.EU will be able to export "consolidated" (so anonymized) datas back to the US ? Same would be applicable for Apple, Amazon, MS & Co...
