> A European court has no jurisdiction to impose any penalties on a non-European company.

In theory can’t an european court request the US gov. To hand over the CEO for illegal activities ?

Not that this case would go these lengths and I have not idea of any merit of OP’s point.

What illegal activities? Tracking users is not illegal in the US, nor is blocking access. You could make wearing purple illegal again and ask the US to extradite folks for it, but we wouldn’t do it so you wouldn’t bother asking.

Maybe they could, but I can’t imagine the US government could legally extradict. It would be absurd for the US to allow the EU (or the other way around, for that matter) to dictate what Americans or American companies can do in America (assuming the companies have no EU presence).

yeah - exactly that. Or just arrest them any time they visit, really.
