> Siloing off the EU facebook, with no contact with the US side

That's insufficient as the US CLOUD Act allows the US government to compel a US company to cough up the data even if it is hosted in the EU and subject to EU privacy laws.

The only workaround I could see is one where they would spin out Facebook EU as a legally independent non-US entity (giving shares in it to Meta shareholders) and federate that with FB US.
