Comment on Disney hack leads to 1.2TB of Slack communications leaked online

Kinda, but not even admin accounts can view/export private channels they are not a member of.

It absolutely is.
Slack must have this for compliance issues, or they would be locked out of many industries (like banking and insurance)

I had to manage a Slack migration to another org we were merging with. As the owner, normally I couldn’t even see the names of private channels, but when it came down to the migration, upgrading the account to Business+ tier, the full export included everything (private channels and DMs), which we imported into the new org.
Slack sends notifications to all Admins that the export was happening, and i’ve only seen that notification once after using Slack for 10 years.

😮I bet there is some spicy stuff in the DMs of companies with 1000+ people

IIRC Admins can not, but Org owners can in certain situations.

Definitely is a feature… Have personally used it.
