The guy who was a CEO of a top 10 digital services (?) company worldwide, Atos, and before that of the biggest French telecom (France Telecom/Orange). He was named 3 times in the top 100 CEOs by Harvard Business Review. He was a minister of economics, finances and industry for 2 years. Also has a few sci-fi books.
And for you, he became popular when he was named European Commissioner? Which company did he fine to become famous with his new position?
The only actual example I can think of is Schrems and he didn't fine anyone, he merely dismantled the shoddily constructed EU-US privacy law circumventions (Privacy Shield etc). And I had to look up his first name (Max) because I only knew his name from the court cases (notably Schrems II).
Heh, great illustration of how hollow the "politician acting for fame" accusation is: the only name you could think of is of an EFF-like activist, he's not a politician at all :D
