You know, if Anonymous has the ability to find and release the personal information of people involved in the drug cartel, doesn't that really say something about our government? The multi-billion dollar agencies who are supposedly fighting the war on drugs should be able to find out this info in the blink of an eye if Anonymous is capable of finding it. So what does that tell you? To me, it seems that our government is involved in the drug cartel, but maybe that's a leap. However they were involved with drug running, so in reality it might not be that far from the truth.
You people don't seem to understand who or what anonymous is.
The above is completely wrong.
The government hires hackers or rather professional IT personnel, but hackers are a different ilk. They will do their job, but will usually also be after their own ends.
You have no idea the power that is available to the best hackers. Just like you have no idea the power available to many of the US citizens with firearms.
It takes only a catalyst and a willingness to risk exposure to ignite a fuse that could take out anything in its path.
You also have to be aware that in many cases even if the gov is able to discern this that it doesn't want to truly fight the drug cartels, if they did they would only have to go to Texas or New Mexico on the border and they could take the fight to them.

The mexican drug cartels pose a clear and present danger to the security of the United States. Having said that... there's exactly 0 probability of an invasion of Mexico.

Whoever this is, your anonymity may not protect you, these people have connections, money and powers you should fear... Cross them, and they will find you eventually, sparing no expense and exploiting every tool they have paid access to, ultimately to relentlessly hunt you down... Whoever you are.

They say that the most dangerous weapon in the world is the pen, so I guess its advantage anonymous.

1-Not a spokesman, genius, but I know enough to know how they work. are you an idiot?
2-The only solution is a military one. They're no different than a terrorist group.
Having said that, it'll never happen.
You have no idea what you are talking about. I lost two friends to these guys, they went down to mexico to help locals get off drugs and out from the cartel's influence and earlier in this thread i post a story about a reporter that was decapitated for her blog post about the cartel.
Here is the difference between me and anonymous i HAVE done something, my friends have been killed over this.
If the government shuts own the internet, we will shut down the government.

well it seems Anon has joined the drug war with a vengeance having pissed off none other than Los Zetas.
apparently anon in mexico has been conducting a "paperstorm" campaign dropping accusatory fliers naming government officials of corruption and of collusion with the dreaded narco cartel, among other activities.
hmmm if anon is actually cia then why mess with one of the cia's and shadow gov's cash cows.

We shouldn't fear thugs with guns.
Yea we should be aware of the danger they could cause, but there's nothing wrong with trying to fight back.
What would you do if you were in the same position?
Not do anything?
