Practically speaking, what are we supposed to do here? Slack raised 250m from Softbank which we know is driven be Saudi investment. Should we stop using Slack? Honestly, I doubt anyone would do that despite all this "outrage". I put it in quotes because all these principles are great to talk about but people won't do even a small thing like leaving Slack in their companies.
- QML 8y agoDon’t interpret the words given as a common prescription. Most of us don’t have enough to make a global impact—only a local change. Wait and see if Masayoshi Son, or SoftBank, will comment on the situation; see if Stewart Butterfield, or Slack, will. If neither of them say anything, then that’s when you should decide to continue using Slack or drop it; but don’t pretend you were oblivious.
