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.
Company Responded
Salesforce replied to the outreach regarding Heroku (responses on 17 February, 3 March, and 4 March 2026), deferring the matter to its enterprise-wide sanctions-compliance review rather than committing to any change for Syria access.

Work at Salesforce? Know someone who does?
Sanctions are lifted. Most companies just haven't updated their policies. A word from inside Salesforce can change that.
Tips for advocating
- Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams.
- Reference the lifted sanctions.
- Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria.
