California's CCPA/CCRA is about the same as GDPR, and increasingly used as the template for state-level privacy laws in the US. Are they going to leave the US as well?

Now there is an issue with the extraterritorial overreach of the US CLOUD Act, which means the surveillance dragnet is extended to any US company, even if the data is hosted on servers outside the US. A strict reading of GDPR and Schrems II would mean that it is actually unlawful for Facebook to offer services in the EU.
