The emails they sent did not have any appeals process. They were also sent from no-reply addresses.
The worst thing about this isn't them blocking (even though they didn't need to). It was that they assumed their systems are 100% perfect and no one would need to appeal.
It was also the timing of this that was annoying. Right before long holidays (harder to get to your workplace and let people know what happened)

Please send a note to feedback@slack.com so we can investigate further. In general, they're also saying that, > If you travel to an embargoed country, your account will not be deactivated if you attempt to use Slack. https://twitter.com/SlackHQ/status/1075924814530076675 https://twitter.com/SlackHQ/status/1075924814530076675
- zenexer 8y agoI’ve seen the email sent to aaomidi, and it didn’t say that. It’s possible that they revised the notice after receiving complaints, but the initial batch was worded rather harshly without any indication that it was possible to appeal.
