Bye bye BetterSlack

I guess the person you're replying to's point was to take it to the next step. Let them initiate legal proceedings (and pay lawyers) to do something.

Maybe it's foolish, maybe it's not, but this email cost Slack the salary of the person for the time it took him/her to write it. At least make them also pay for an hour or two of legal fees to have this taken down.

And in the process be potentially banned from the platform. This could cost OP his job, considering he built this utility to make Slack bearable to use in his place of employment.

How exactly would they ban you? It's not like Slack verifies your identity upon signup. A new email would be sufficient.
