Progress Timeline

Activity Summary

Partially blocked in Syria, verified in March 2026: the main site loads but account signup is blocked by a sanctions page, with the restriction confirmed to be IP-based. The team raised the matter with the parent company alongside its other products, and the company replied three times in February and March 2026 deferring to an enterprise-wide compliance review with no commitment to restore access.

Follow-up Sent

Official outreach email sent from corporateaffairs@unblocksyria.com to feedback@slack.com. Heroku was explicitly named alongside Slack as a Salesforce product with Syria restrictions. The email argued for a single corporate-level compliance review across all three products.

Work at Heroku? Know someone who does?

You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Heroku or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.

Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
