Eni & Me

When I began telling my story with the Italian oil giant Eni, many believed it would eventually disappear into silence.

But the exact opposite happened.

After nearly 25 long and painful years of an unequal battle, my story has begun crossing borders.

The blog Eni’s Way, created to document facts, documents and events related to my case, has just reached consecutive new traffic records.

In May 2026, the website achieved its highest number of visits up to that point.

Now, in June 2026, another new record: nearly 40,000 views in a single month.

This did not happen by chance.

The internet has completely changed the relationship between power, memory and silence.

For decades, large corporations could rely on psychological, financial and reputational exhaustion to wear down those who chose to report irregularities, abuses or practices incompatible with their own public discourse on ethics and corporate governance.

But today, documents circulate.

Stories remain accessible.

And truth leaves traces.

My story began in Brazil almost 25 years ago, after reports involving irregularities and ethical issues connected to Eni’s Brazilian subsidiary.

Since then came lawsuits, professional destruction, reputational damage and a battle that crossed different countries, governments, administrations and five different compositions of the company’s Board of Directors.

Even so, the story never disappeared.

On the contrary.

Over the years, it began attracting the attention of journalists, critical shareholders, civil society organizations, whistleblowers and people interested in corporate ethics, governance, freedom of expression and whistleblower protection.

Today, what impresses me most is not only the growing number of views.
It is realizing that people around the world are beginning to ask the same question:

🔹 Is my case really an isolated episode - or part of a much larger pattern?

Because when a story remains alive after 25 years, perhaps it was never only about one person.

Perhaps it reveals something much bigger about power, silence, fear and corporate accountability.

And perhaps that is exactly why it continues to grow.
