Comment on Shuttered startups are selling old Slack chats and emails to AI companies

Comments

I thought it was against Slack's ToS to exfiltrate data like this?

Also surely most of a startup's Slack activity is just fluff - is there some amount of preprocessing the AI companies have to do, I wonder.

How is the ToS relevant when the company is already bankrupt (IANAL)? Slack can cancel the customer-relationship with the bankrupt company, but that's it, no?
