First point, is what started this whole security issue was that some senior member of the Dropbox company had his laptop hacked and his computer had a list and access to administration level database passwords; passwords that would have never been able to be cracked. I will bet that those passwords have been changed and the employee will have been reprimanded. The second point and the articles conclusion, that should be challenged, is the following statement in the article " ...Dropbox is by far the most secure of all file synchronization applications... " is so wrong by a long way. The article was very interesting but the truth is that your Dropbox is just as secure, or not as the case may be, as it was before....but I did find the piece very interesting.
