Individual users have no meaningful control over how their data is used or shared. Privacy-preserving alternatives cannot compete on network effects, leaving users structurally exposed on the platforms they actually use.

Slack allows unverified fake accounts without organizational identity checks

Slack's open workspace model makes it trivial to create accounts impersonating members of real organizations, with no verification requirement tied to a corporate identity.

Enterprise security teams have no reliable native mechanism to enforce org-level identity validation.
