I think this quote is missing some important context. Here's a bit more:
"In August 2020, we received a preliminary draft decision from the
Irish Data Protection Commission (IDPC) that preliminarily concluded that Meta Platforms Ireland's reliance on SCCs in respect of European user data does not
achieve compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and preliminarily proposed that such transfers of user data from the European Union to
the United States should therefore be suspended. We believe a final decision in this inquiry may issue as early as the first half of 2022. If a new transatlantic data
transfer framework is not adopted and we are unable to continue to rely on SCCs or rely upon other alternative means of data transfers from Europe to the United
States, we will likely be unable to offer a number of our most significant products and services, including Facebook and Instagram, in Europe, which would
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations."
