So let me get this straight, a new 'free' version of Slack that sends all your companies internal communications straight to Chinese government servers. Now they don't even have to hack us, we're giving it to them voluntarily.


Fun fact: This is how Slack looks from a European perspective.


That is also how it looks when someone has a SaaS hosted in AWS. Then wonder why potential clients are asking for self-hosted.


And, that is how Slack looks from here in Russia ;-)

Honestly, SaaS, even if it is operated in your own country, makes me feel gross. I try to stay away from anything I can't self-host as much as possible.
