Seeing a lot of comments say (in one way or another) 'well duh, wages are lower in the EU' than they are in Silicon Valley.
But I don't know, if they'd laid off their EU staff instead this thread would be full of people saying it's just too expensive to be EU-based due to all the regulations and 'unnecessary' worker protection. In fact, there are many such threads on this brightly-colored website.
Maybe, if you feel inclined to post something like that, consider if you'd used pretty much the same reasoning if it were the other way round and reflect on that.
