My point is that Slack is no more or less secure than the myriad other
tools which (I would wager) the vast majority of sysadmin teams --
including as noted earlier ones with decently-enforced
security-mandates -- use on a regular basis.

Perhaps you generally fall into the "far more secure than most"
category, and you eschew Google's mail/docs/calendaring, and you don't
use github (even when you're paying for the premium level that
includes privacy), and you wouldn't think of using a cloud-based
ticketing system like Atlassian OnDemand.

If so, kudos to you. I have no idea how you get anything accomplished
on a daily basis. :-)
