I'm slightly concerned that these links may somehow allow access to other areas of my dropbox folders / reveal other information about my account that could open up my account to being hacked and generally comprise my security. Dropbox explained the behavior is a function of a feature, but insidious or not it has. What concerns me is I like to share links to particular folders and files with friends and family, and possibly even the open internet in general. Security researchers discovered that Dropbox opens up certain file types. See why millions of people trust us with what matters most. A couple weeks ago I couldn't get into the app on my phone, on on investigating, it seems my account has been disabled. They call it secure, but it clearly is NOT. We protect data and keep your work life and your home life organized. Hi, I've been a paying Dropbox customer for decades, I've hated their bad support, and I've hated that their support agents can see my files. If they do I should be notified by email anyway. At Dropbox, security is our highest priority. I feel happy enough knowing that no one is really going to 'hack' into my account and access my files.

However, because it holds all my so very personal and intimate files I'm concerned around security. I basically store everything on it from my computer content (for backup purposes) to selectively sharing across all my devices (and partitions), to just uploading large amounts of data for storage.
