<translate> Can my boss read my Slack messages? Its a question as old as time itself or at least as old as work chat. We expect a certain level of privacy when we talk on any platform. But with more and more digital platforms being used for work comes a new flavour of workplace anxiety: employee surveillance. If youve chatted with anyone using apps like Slack or Microsoft Teams or Zoom, you may have wondered who else may be tuned into the conversation as well. <swh>Je, bosi wangu anaweza kusoma ujumbe wangu wa Slack? Ni swali la zamani kama wakati wenyewe au angalau kama swali la zamani kuhusu mazungumzo kazini. Tunatarajia kuwepo na kiwango fulani cha faragha tunapozungumza kwenye jukwaa lolote. Lakini tunapotumia majukwaa mengi ya kidijitali kufanya mawasiliano kazini, kuna sababu ya kuwa na wasiwasi kama vile: ufuatiliaji wa mazungumzo baina ya wafanyakazi. Ikiwa umezungumza na mtu yeyote anayetumia programu kama vile Slack, Microsoft Teams au Zoom, huenda umejiuliza ni nani mwengine anayepata fursa ya kufuatilia mazungumzo haya
