Can’t anyone already do that with a screenshot or a log dump? I’m always assuming company provided comms platforms are fully readable by the admins

[ivan888]

That's a good operating assumption, and I usually think this way too.

It turns out Slack actually requires legal process or consent of parties to provide private messages to admins: https://slack.com/help/articles/204897248-Guide-to-Slack-imp...

But of course yes, another party could simply take a screenshot

They certainly can on Business and Enterprise plans. There’s some lip service to following employee policy and applicable laws, but if the policy allows (most do), and you’re in the US, the admins can do it.

[ivan888]

Ah yes you are right. The policy I am referencing is for the Free or Pro tiers, Business is different

It is. Firm I worked at had AI summarized chats delivered to admins and upper level management.

If you talk shit about your superiors, it will get back to them. Same with "anonymous" surveys.

love how we have technology that would have made Beria nut in his pants, now available to every pointy-haired boss

i'm thinking of moving to a cabin in the woods outside Lincoln, Montana
