this is pretty badass imho
After successfully taking out a child porn ring, Anonymous is threatening war on November 5th with Mexico's Zetas drug cartel, after the kidnapping of an Anonymous member from Veracruz.
The video states that if the Mexican drug cartel doesn't free the kidnapped Anonymous member unharmed, the hacking group will release the names, addresses and photos of taxi drivers, journalists and police officers on the payroll of the criminal gang. The video ends with an ultimatum that simply states that they "will always remember this coming November 5th".

this is pretty badass imho
yeah, I read about this yesterday. SUPER NERDS UNITE!
apparently the Anonymous members in Mexico want nothing to do with this. I guess having your intestines pulled out through your asshole isn't something they're interested in.

It would be ing awesome if they did on a huge powerful cartel tho.
I think a machete is mightier than the keyboard.
they've been making some big claims lately... Fox News, Facebook and now this. I'll believe it when I see it.
these nerds are biting off more than they can chew
2 thing you don't do in life. Don't mess with drug cartel members, don't mess with hacker nerds.
This is going to be a calculated bomb of epic proportion. Let's see if Anony. has the balls.
oh son....I hope something crazy ensues. I cannot wait. This is awesome.
bottom line it is legit or not?
Go Anonymous!!!
Mother er is dead already
False retaliation from the drug cowards is a potential problem.
Example. Lets say Anon does publish all the cartel supporters on Nov 5th. From then on will a witch hunt by the Zetas ensue? Of course it will. Ie "I saw Pedro at his computer 3 days in a row. He must be an Anonymous member" Bullet holes for Pedro.

Anonymous retreats from Mexico drug cartel confrontation
Plans by the hacker collective Anonymous to expose collaborators with Mexico's bloody Zetas drug cartel – a project it dubbed "#OpCartel" – have fallen into disarray, with some retreating from the idea of confronting the killers while others say that the kidnap of an Anonymous hacker, the incident meant to have spawned the scheme, never happened.
The apparent climbdown by the group came as one security company, Stratfor, claimed that the cartel was hiring its own security experts to track the hackers down – which could have resulted in "abduction, injury and death" for anyone it traced.
Is this the same group that is shutting down Facebook?
lmao soooo hardcore
so what have these web badasses ever accomplished?

They look exactly how you'd imagine them.
The kidnapped member was freed, but the Zetas have said they will kill one of his family members for each associate exposed.
Members of the hackers group 'Anonymous' have called off a cyber attack against a Mexican drug cartel after one of their kidnapped members was reportedly freed.
The group released a statement released on their Twitter Account @IberoAnon on Thursday night.
Earlier this week, members of Anonymous alleged the Zetas drug cartel had kidnapped one of their members in Veracruz.
The hackers group vowed to unmask allies of the Zetas on Saturday, November 5th unless their kidnapped member had been freed by that time.
In the statement released on Thursday, the group reported that kidnapped Anonymous member had indeed been freed.
Freed, But Threatened
Although their member had been freed, the group reported that their member had been asked to deliver a message.
The liberated member of the group was told that one member of his/her family would be killed for each and every Zetas ally that the group unmasks.
The Ibero-wing of Anonymous had set up a channel of communication on the #OpCartel hashtag on Twitter.
The group defended its decision to call off the attack in a series of messages posted to Twitter early Friday morning.
"For those who call us cowards, they're acting brave because it's not their family who's been threatened," the group wrote in Spanish. "I hope they never have to make a decision like that."
Defending Criticism
The group said continuing "Operation Cartel" would have condemned innocent people to death.
"If this doesn't hurt you, then you're the same as the Zetas," the group wrote in Spanish.
The group had had received criticism on Twitter but insisted the decision was made for the right reasons.
"Those that insist on #OpCartel aren't doing so out of a desire for change, they're doing it for simply being morbid," the group said in Spanish. "We're asking for respect for our freed member."
The group's last statement was issued around 1:18 a.m. Friday.
"Those who call us accomplices of the Zetas and cowards show their lack of interest for the lives of others their sick egoism," the group wrote in Spanish.
Cartel Threat
Anonymous reported that the Zetas had posted a message to the Twitter account @pinkie1995 to threaten members of the hackers group earlier in the day on Thursday.
A message on the account, which used the name of supreme Zetas leader Heriberto Lazcano, vowed to track down members of the group using their IP address.
Anonymous responded by replying on their Twitter account that their cybersecurity was too sophisticated for the Zetas.
According to a message on the @pinkie1995 Twitter account, the cartel responded, "For us, nothing is impossible."
