We use Slack at my workplace and , although I don’t like this new privacy change, I’ve been around long enough to know that any work-supplied device and activity on that device are snoopable.

Exactly this. My work email is monitored for regulatory purposes so I never engage in any non work-related conversation. And office WiFi? No thanks.

I informed my employer years ago that if they want me to use any work related apps on my phone then they needed to supply me with a work device to put them on.

I don't like the new privacy change, but since I only use Slack for personal use.... mainly iMore related. It's on my own personal device, so I'm not concerned.

However, If I did use it for work reasons, I would only use it on work-related devices, for work-related matters.
