In the UK at least, Just Stop Oil did block oil infrastructure initially. The corporations worked with the government to use massive injunctions so people were getting huge penalties for very minimal disruption, and it never got any press coverage either.

The law protects the corporations, and the press doesn't care unless the public or public figures are involved. That's why they changed to public disruption.
