Chevron, who through a coup controlled the Ecuadorian government for many years, got the government to sign a law called βThe Act of Liberationβ, which, although very much contradicting the name, made it impossible for anyone (especially indigenous people) to sue the oil company.
They made it illegal to be sued.
