Today in Labor History January 5, 1968: Reformist Alexander Dubček came to power in Czechoslovakia, marking the beginning of the "Prague Spring." During the Prague Spring, Dubček loosened restrictions on the media, speech and travel. He also created a dual federation within the country made up of the Czech Socialist Republic and Slovak Socialist Republic. However, this was insufficient to mollify activists, who became increasingly defiant of the government. They began to occupy workplaces and formed mutual aid networks. When the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact members invaded the country with tanks and 650,000 soldiers, activists fought them with rocks, Molotov cocktails and homemade weapons. The Soviet military predicted they would subdue the country in four days, but the resistance held out for eight months. When they finally quashed the uprising, the Soviets continued to control Czechoslovakia until 1989, when the Velvet Revolution finally ended the Communist regime.

𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄: Who is behind “xoxo From Prague”? An attack on LockBit inspired by the Prague Spring?

As analysts and researchers continue to assess the scope of the unprecedented breach of LockBit’s infrastructure, a new theory is beginning to take shape: the attack may have been carried out by exploiting an undocumented 0-day vulnerability in PHP.

A source who shared preliminary insights with SuspectFile.com emphasized that this is only a hypothesis and should be treated as such:...

The reference to the Prague Spring, the 1968 period of political reform in Czechoslovakia crushed by Soviet intervention, is unlikely to be a coincidence. “From Prague” seems to be a symbolic nod to rebellion against authoritarian oppression—recontextualized today as resistance against organized cybercrime.
