Although Slack’s popularity and reach have expanded, its safety features have not. The company is refusing to offer anti-harassment and privacy features – like the options for end-to-end encryption and blocking. Today, we will be at Slack's headquarters in San Francisco and Denver with mobile billboards to deliver our message that people who use Slack deserve better privacy and safety features. Now is the perfect time to sign and share the petition. [Tell Slack to offer common-sense privacy and safety tools](! [Sign the Petition]( People use Slack in all sorts of ways—including for personal projects, like volunteering or activism. Despite this, Slack is refusing to offer end-to-end encryption or anti-harassment tools like blocking, which can be lifelines especially for the activism, journalism, and other sensitive types of work that happens on the platform. You can read more about this issue in our first email to you, which is included below. Thank you, Reem Suleiman US Advocacy Lead Mozilla Foundation PS– After you've signed, you can [tweet our demands for a safe Slack to get their attention on Twitter](: Millions depend on tools like @SlackHQ to connect online. But Slack needs safety tools like the option for end-to-end encryption & blocking. I’m joining @Mozilla and 90+ other groups demanding: #MakeSlackSafe [makeslacksafe.com](. --------------------------------------------------------------- Our previous email to you on this topic: Make Slack Safe Millions of people use Slack every day. It’s an easy, quick way to send messages (and emojis 🙉) — but it’s not always safe. If you get threatened or harassed on Slack, there’s no way to block abusive messages. Honestly, it’s a bit hard to believe. This lack of protection is way behind the industry standard: Similar platforms like Microsoft Teams offer tools to protect the diverse community of people that use their products. Simply put, Slack is slacking when it comes to safety. But with your help, we can pressure the company to put safety and privacy first. [Sign the petition to make Slack safe!](VJVw9pdMe/VXBEekJEdlM1OHV3U0VweFBDVzZ0Tkp1L1lhL3lCa0hwNEJBbEVWLy8yN0YzSTRNQkdtc2pTVUNTckc5QjlsbDROazlJaHk3NzhGamNSa1YzNElYeFVXOE9nU0x4MDhoSHhLUW5oOFg0akU9S0/) Slack is ignoring the fact that people use Slack in all kinds of ways. In the work context, there’s HR to step in if something happens - but people use it off-the-clock for personal projects, volunteering, or support groups. What options do they have to protect them from abuse or threats? And for an activist or journalist vulnerable to harassment and attack – the block button and end-to-end encryption can be lifesaving tools. These are simple features that we believe Slack should offer to protect the people who use their product. [Tell Slack to offer common-sense privacy and safety tools: Provide the option for blocking and end-to-end encryption](. If Slack can make money off all the different ways people use the platform, the company should do its part to protect the safety and livelihood of the diverse group of people who use it. As you know, the internet is a great place. But sometimes things go wrong – that’s why we believe everyone should have safety options to choose from – including on Slack.
