I believe Anonymous Mexico in general backed out, but there's still some individuals going through with the plan.
I still think they're total ballers, but what can you do with a handful of hackers vs an organisation like this : (

According to this and this, they are going forward with the whole operation. Hard to say who is backing who and what. And who knows what is happening or going to happen.

Right, because releasing the names of the drug cartel members who essentially own the vast majority of Mexican government, intelligence agencies, and police forces is going to strike such a blow.

Each name and/or affiliation that is brought to the public will cause those people to be killed.

The threat out outing names and agencies is very real. It is a death sentence. There are many very strong and well funded criminal organizations.....

I'm very proud of the Mexican community, they have to take up this fight, they must combat criminal tyranny.

If Anonymous is such that no one really knows who is all in the group, how will we know if the Zetas catch and kill a member? While they wait for their computer experts to track em down, they could catch and kill random people they dont like and claim that they are members of the group responsible for the threats against the Zetas. Anonymous will of course deny it regardless of whether or not they are actually members.

Also, how do we know Anonymous's information about the Zeta members is accurate? If some of their names arent even Zeta members, people will die needlessly. I dunno, they might have good intentions but I think a lot of innocent people are going to suffer. Its a little too late now though. If the Zetas are tracking them down now, I doubt theyll stop even if Anonymous all announce theyre cancelling the attacks

According to a danish newspaper Los Zetas released the Anon member. And members of Anon confirms this..
Dunno if it is a bluff or whatever, but it seems they got what they wanted..

Edit: Article was made by a pretty bad newspaper, but here it is for any danish people: http://ekstrabladet.dk/kup/elektronik/teknologi/article1651846.ece

Minor point, which seems to be forgotten a lot of the time: Mexico is in North America.

One of the core values of the 'Anonymous' movement is to never be anyone's personal army. This was a value lost when Sabu was the head of lulzsec, as he prettymuch told the anonymous people what to do, when to ddos someone and so on. Now they started an Op to be some mexican dude's personal army? And then they promptly release a statement saying 'Nah bro we don't really want to fuck with the cartel'. They're starting to make a joke of themselves now.

Rubbish. Being a personal army =! doing something because they feel it is right.

The point is that they are letting someone command them, some (one) person telling them what to do, and that's something they used to be against, and have openly said that this was not how they would operate.

it's in a (normally reliable) Swedish newspaper as well.

According to this article, the Zetas had a condition though: if anonymous ever publish that information, they will go after the guy and his family. So even though they got their guy out, I think Zetas won the game... now they have locked down the anonymous information, since they know the identity of one of them. Maybe it was a bad move from anonymous to tell zetas about one of their guys, because now zetas can blackmail them into anything essentially. What's next? "Anon, give us info about that other clan, or we will kill the sister of your guy!" Also, now anyone can kill (or at least put in very dangerous situation) this guy, and his family, by publishing information about zetas in the name of anonymous... Hmm, maybe anon went a bit outside their field of expertise... :/

Sensationalism much? Are you telling me los Zetas/CDG/whoever "own" the "vast majority" of the government? Because that's what you wrote, and it's not quite accurate. There is corruption, obviously, and it's a huge problem on many levels -- especially at the local level of authorities. However, it's not as if the "entire police force/government forces/military/whatever" is in bed with the drug cartels. It doesn't work that way. In full, open contacts, the Mexican military still controls the battlefield, although that does not say the situation is not a mess. You don't have patrols of cartel fighters overrunning military bases or corrupting entire factions of the army/police... come on. It's more subtle and more focused at a local level, widespread

In any case, the concern with releasing names is that others pick up the names and act on the information. Sometimes by "act on the information", what I really mean is "brutally murder them".

They still have the info they try to blackmail them to do their bidding they still have that list that the Cartel didn't want to get out.
But crossing a cartel like that isn't something you can just put behind you, he'll have to live with this the rest of his life probably.
