I've been suggesting to friends for a while that the US government (where I live) is likely to start debanking their critics. So I'm not surprised to read this, I'm more surprised at how uncommon (or perhaps under-reported) these sorts of events are.

I'm also not familiar with Qonto or French banking. Does this person have rights? Are the french courts functional, and does this person have a good chance of prevailing against Qonto?
