Because all those Tech Giants are American or Chinese. EU is lagging behind US on innovation so now they want to make Tech Giants jobs more difficult in hopes that this will create some openings for EU tech firms. They don't really care about you're privacy that much, they just want it make more difficult for Google and Facebook to siphon money out of EU. It's still great for us, don't get me wrong.
