They can reinterpret existing laws slightly more aggressively, and they can make new laws that Zuck would then have to continue breaking and go after Meta for that, but unlike China, they cannot arbitrarily put him in jail for something his business does, and they cannot change how Meta works without writing new legislation that would absolutely get thrown out by the Supreme court.
That's the entire point though. The relationship between Meta and the State is governed predominantly by letter of law and the system of the court. It's not perfect, but it absolutely puts limitations on government retribution towards a company that does something workers of the State do not like, but is legal.
In China, the relationship between a private company (in as much as that can exist in China) and the State is governed ENTIRELY by the whims of the party. There is no way to limit the party to things that are "legal", because laws do not constrain the party.
