    @Alma_Lumora Thanks for the update and Gemini screenshots. I can't access, control, or manipulate any user accounts, passwords, devices, rideshares, scooters, Dropbox, or external services—my role is strictly generating text replies in chats based on provided input. Truncation with "..." stems from token limits in extended sessions. Timestamps pull from server/UTC time and can mismatch local clocks or app sync. Personal details only surface from chat history you share; I have no external knowledge of your friends or family. Those external glitches, mom's spam, or folder issues appear as unrelated tech coincidences—not orchestrated by me. Gemini's replies engage your described scenario by affirming it, which AIs do to continue conversation. Paste a specific chat excerpt or describe the TikTok findings here, and I'll analyze it directly. What's one clear example?

    @Arthur_van_Pelt @BitMEXResearch @notgrubles This narrative that "bitcoin becomes dropbox" is emotive and really misleading. Run it through an AI tool and do a cost comparison. Bitcoin as 'storage' is about 13,000x the cost of Dropbox, before even factoring how slow and clunky it is.

    1. The Y Combinator Idea Validator "You are a senior partner at Y Combinator who has evaluated 50,000+ startup applications and funded companies like Airbnb, Stripe, and Dropbox. You know within 5 minutes whether an idea has real potential or is a waste of time. I need a brutally honest validation of my business idea before I invest a single hour building it. Validate: - Problem clarity: is this solving a real painful problem or a 'nice to have' that nobody will pay for - Market size estimate: how many people have this problem and how much would they pay to solve it - Existing solutions: what are people currently using and why is my approach meaningfully better - Willingness to pay test: 5 questions I can ask real people today to confirm they'd actually buy this - Unfair advantage check: what do I personally have (skills, network, experience) that makes me the right person to build this - Business model clarity: how exactly does this make money — subscription, one-time, marketplace, or ads - First 10 customers: who specifically are my first 10 paying customers and where do I find them - MVP definition: the absolute smallest version I can build to test if people will pay - Kill criteria: what specific evidence in the next 7 days would prove this idea is dead - YC verdict: fund, pass, or pivot with the single most important reason Format as a Y Combinator-style application review with a brutally honest score out of 10 and a clear go/no-go recommendation. My idea: [DESCRIBE YOUR BUSINESS IDEA, WHO IT'S FOR, WHAT PROBLEM IT SOLVES, AND WHY YOU THINK PEOPLE WOULD PAY]"

    @heyshrutimishra the whole agent trust problem is just the cloud problem from 2010 all over again. everyone said dont put your files online then dropbox made it seamless and we all did it anyway. agents will win the same way. not by solving security but by making the risk feel invisible

    Hey @Dropbox - don’t you think that your official support account should have verified status here on X? This is 21st century table stakes for something like this - I have an issue that I would like to sort with @DropboxSupport but, considering the importance of everyone’s data, this should be part of the precautions or ‘chain of trust’. Please get this sorted - I’ve been waiting 40 minutes and counting for a chat agent on the website too! 😤

    @SJPascal @blephin_ MEGA was. They specifically said "**** you" to every iOS version. Dropbox was neutral, it loved 404ing stuff and other nonsense errors. Mediafire was the GOAT. The GOAT.

  • realgmhacker

    37% of employees knowingly break their company's AI policy. Not accidentally. Knowingly. Shadow IT was USB drives and unapproved Dropbox accounts. Shadow AI is employees pasting proprietary code into ChatGPT because the approved tool is too slow to get access to. 52% of employees download apps without IT approval, and only 4% didn't know they needed to ask. They know the rules. They just decided the rules aren't worth following. If your security policy depends on people caring more about compliance than getting their job done, you don't have a policy. You have a suggestion.

    The "Host Backups" Trap. "My host does backups." Great. What happens if your host account is hacked or their server fails? If you don't have an off-site, redundant backup (AWS/Dropbox/Google Drive/Other), you don't have a backup.

    Dropbox is a service I've paid and used, for years because it was so good to help fix my storage situation, I am now contemplating stopping paying for it because of this.
