The group known as "Anonymous" has now threatened the fearsome Los Zetas with public exposure of its members' identities and businesses if it doesn't release one of its members who was kidnapped during a street protest. The Anonymous video is linked below.
"The vow is a bizarre cyber twist to Mexico's ongoing drug war, as a group that has no guns is squaring off against the Zetas, a cartel blamed for thousands of deaths as well as introducing beheadings and other frightening brutality.
'You made a huge mistake by taking one of us. Release him,' says a masked man in a video posted online on behalf of the group, Anonymous. 'We cannot defend ourselves with a weapon … but we can do this with their cars, homes, bars, brothels and everything else in their possession," says the man, who is wearing a suit and tie.'"

The retired head of international ops for the DEA says that the Zetas should take the Anonymous threat seriously. I'm not a fan of Anonymous, but after I read this article, it occurred to me that if they expose this vicious cartel, leaving it vulnerable to its rivals, they might succeed where law enforcement has failed.
What do you think?
