ERM.....
Like some pointed out
"Fucking with them your making enemies for life, they hold onto grudges"
And
"cartels have money to hire other good nerds to find them"
Doesn't matter how good you "think" you are there is usually someone, or other groups, who are better than you and will work for dangerous people to find you and cartels will never forget or give up the "hunt"
Anonymous' Operation Cartel
