The source discusses the pervasive influence of drug cartels in Mexico, specifically focusing on the phenomenon of "narcoinfluencers" who use social media to promote cartels by justifying their actions and denigrating rivals. It details the murder of an influencer, Camilo Ochoa, highlighting the use of hackers to locate targets and the brutal methods employed by sicarios. The conversation also exposes widespread corruption within the Mexican political system, with a website, narcopoliticos.com, cited as documenting connections between politicians, bureaucrats, and various cartels, including the Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation cartels. The source emphasizes that no political party or state is immune to cartel infiltration, describing Mexico as a "narcostate" where violence is rampant, and government efforts to combat it are often ineffective or even complicit. The speakers convey a deep concern for press freedom and the safety of journalists in Mexico, asserting that the country's severe corruption and cartel control lead to a near-total impunity for violence.@HackersOIHEC @narcopoliticos_
