If you switch to Teams only for this reason I have some bad news for you - there’s no way Microsoft is not (or will not start in future) doing the same. And you’ll get a subpar experience with that (which is an understatement).
- guappa 2y agoI think a self hosted matrix/irc/jitsi is the way to do it.
- IshKebab 2y agoWe've been using Mattermost and it works very well. Better than Slack. The only downside is their mobile app is a bit unreliable, in that it sometimes doesn't load threads properly.
- cpach 2y agoI would guess Microsoft has a lot more government customers (and large customers in general) than Slack does. So I would think they have a lot more to loose if they went this route.
- District5524 2y agoThe Universal License Terms of Microsoft (applicable to Teams as well) clearly say they don't use customer data (Input) for training: https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/terms/product/ForallOnlineServices/all#:~:text=Use%20of%20Content,oai/access https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/terms/product/ForallOnli... Whether someone believes it or not, is another question, but at least they tell you what you want to hear.
- bayindirh 2y agoWhat if they exfiltrate customer data to a data broker and they buy it back? It's not customer data anymore.
- programjames 2y agoUnless your company makes a special arrangement with them, Microsoft will steal all of your data. It's at least in their TOS for Outlook, and for some reason doubt they wouldn't do the same for Teams.
