They are now telling customers who sell firearms that they are barred from using Salesforce “technology to market products, manage customer service operations and fulfill orders” unless they cease selling AR-15s.

Salesforce’s “Acceptable Use Policy” goes beyond a ban on AR-15s, to include any semiautomatic firearms “that have the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and any of the following: thumbhole stock, folding or telescoping stock, grenade launcher or flare launcher, flash or sound suppressor, forward pistol grip, pistol grip (in the case of a rifle) or second pistol grip (in the case of a pistol), [and/or] barrel shroud.”

The policy also makes clear that gun retailers cannot sell “high capacity” magazines if they want to use Salesforce software.

I doubt they are the only name in the game. A competitor with a brain should step up and welcome these people with open arms

The last time I was in SF I heard their building had sinking issues. I wonder what sinks more, their building or their sales?

This is amazing virtue signaling. How many gun dealers are in business development cold calling clients to sell grenade launchers?

Those that make the decision on which system to use need to really think about what salesforce is doing. Maybe their position on guns doesn’t affect your business but maybe some other cause they take up in the future will. Why take that risk? Why spend the money and time implementing a system into your business only to have them start putting demands on you the customer?

I should let a memo get to Salesforce that indicates we will no longer do business with any clients or contractors that use products of companies that are attempting to infringe on constitutional rights.
