That's a completely different value prop.
The privacy/own your data pitch will win over some people. Good niche to target. (Like DuckDuckGo does with search)
But very few have reason to be concerned rn about slack secrets being stolen.

Bitcoin ledger is public though, so scanning messages there also possible unless encrypted, and I suspect Slack and others could also be encrypted.
Everything on Bitcoin will be encrypted in a couple of years.
Posting something that is unencrypted will be seen as weird and altruistic.
This commie free internet where you make Zuck and Dorsey rich while others free ride off of your ideas is over.
I'm all for it, but platforms got big for a reason.
Users are on social because they benefit. It's not zero-sum, but win-win.
You can make a better win-win, but naive to pretend people are getting bilked on FB. They are getting value.
On Facebook people are getting mindless entertainment, not value.
You might be getting value on Facebook, because you’re a businessman and an intellectual.
Most people are getting time milked by Zuck bot and accomplishing/learning nothing.
Would love to see default encryption.
I don’t want to debate ‘commie free internet’, but I don’t see this as unique to ‘the Internet’, tho obv exacerbated, w/ attention-based gamification as a foundation. These are issues that exist in the existing private markets; Internet is one ‘channel’.
