Anonymous vs Cartel Update

Earlier in the week I posted about the hacker group Anonymous threatening a Mexican cartel that apparently kidnapped a member of the group. Well now there are whispers of the group not being completely together on going through with their plan to out cartel associates if the member isn't freed.

From Newser:

It looks like Anonymous may not be quite so eager to take on the Zetas as advertised. The plans for “Operation Cartel” have “fallen into disarray,” the Guardian reports, with two members announcing that they were backing out for fear of getting someone killed, and other Anonymous members questioning the sanity of the scheme. “They denounced the op after safety concerns,” tweeted one hacker. Another replied: “The fear that surrounds this idea is astounding. Fairweather revolutionaries?” 

Some hackers even questioned whether the Zetas had actually kidnapped an Anonymous member, as the original video claimed. “Not one person can name the victim, the date or a witness,” one tweet pointed out. Still, a site called Anonymous IberoAmerica says it’s going to assemble a “special task force” to carry out the op. “Do we fear for our lives? Obviously,” the site said. “Notwithstanding that, we think it is time to say ‘enough.’” They're currently asking for tips identifying cartel members.

Well at least some of these dudes have a fucking brain and are realizing that threatening a drug cartel might not be a good idea. I mean this isn't bully some fag on 4chan. This is intentionally calling out cold-blooded murderers. I know hackers think they are tough, but a computer monitor won't stop a dude from knocking you out and lighting you on fire in a barrel of oil. They do that shit.
