Cartel Surveillance: FBI Informants Targeted in Mexico City2 sources
The sources explore two distinct facets of digital activity: cybersecurity and its misuse. One source focuses on "Spydirbyte," a self-proclaimed hacker whose biography details a complex past of trauma, black-hat activities, and later, politically motivated activism, often associated with Anonymous. This narrative, heavily based on Spydirbyte's own accounts, raises questions about the subjective nature of truth in digital shadows. The second source reveals a critical incident involving the Sinaloa Cartel, which allegedly used hacked Mexico City surveillance cameras and an FBI official's compromised data to track and kill informants. This event underscores the dangerous implications of ubiquitous surveillance technology and its potential for exploitation by criminal organizations, sparking debate about privacy, government accountability, and the intersection of technology with organized crime.
