Body of the toot:

Absolutely unbelievable but here we are. #Slack by default using messages, files etc for building and training #LLM models, enabled by default and opting out requires a manual email from the workspace owner.

What does this mean regarding their claims that data is encrypted at rest and in transit? https://slack.com/resources/why-use-slack/slacks-enterprise-security-features

‘at rest’ → we're using filesystem encryption
‘in transit’ → we're using TLS

neither is end-to-end encryption, the data is not private to the service provider.
