They should do 100B - what’re they gonna do? Same for the rest of American big tech. Sue ‘em all, 5B a year. Just pass a law naming them specifically for a special tax.

Does the EU not have protections against bills of attainder?

Not really, no. The lack of such protection is one of the many flaws in the foundational EU treaties and charters.
