- legerdemain 6y agoCool! Where should I send bet money?
- flerchin 6y agoMozilla or EFF, your choice. :-D
- legerdemain 6y agoExcellent, $25 sent to EFF!
- grok22 6y agoIsn't that just a company policy? At some-point, the lawyers will get clued-in and require that even on Slack and other company-wide chat there be a limited retention window!
- fencepost 6y agoDo the people who wrote the email policy know that Slack is permanent? That sounds like the kind of thing that could easily be not-understood by legal.
- KirillPanov 6y agoYeah this policy mismatch definitely seems like a "nobody in legal has noticed yet". They're gonna notice real quick the next time they get sued by somebody clueful enough to subpoena that goldmine.
- KirillPanov 6y agoHave your Slack chats been subpoenaed yet? If not, you are very lucky that you are being sued by people with incompetent attorneys.
