Europeans must be scratching their heads. America’s Big Tech companies may be widely loathed at home, but they are envied on a continent that struggles to create its own innovative wealth creators.

They have long downplayed the significant social harms they do, and they constantly lobby policymakers to block regulation. It is little wonder that their stranglehold on American culture is now deeply resented by left and right alike.
