“After rolling out Slack Connect DMs this morning, we received valuable feedback from our users about how email invitations to use the feature could potentially be used to send abusive or harassing messages. The company shared the statement with The Verge: The new feature is still live, it’s just the ability to send a custom message when inviting others to DM that has been removed. Update 2: After hearing about the abuse flaws, Slack has pulled the option to send a custom message when requesting to send DMs. Check out the tweet from Menotti below for full details. For now, there doesn’t appear to be a way to block incoming invites and the included custom messages. Update: Discovered by Menotti Minutillo, it looks like Slack may need to update how Connect DMs work to prevent the feature from being abused. Going further, Slack also teased more advanced communication features coming later this year to create private business networks that will link multiple organizations. outside of your organization or anyone that’s on Slack. It means you can message partners, clients, etc. Slack Connect DMs were unveiled last fall and now the company is rolling out support for the new feature.
