Comment on How Dropbox sacrifices user privacy for cost savings

Comments

Could be worse. Last year when I tried ZumoDrive (a similar service), I noticed it marks the web-browser login cookies as safe for HTTP, and defaults to open session pages via HTTP. All it takes it checking your ZumoDrive once from an unsecured WiFi and your account may be compromised.

At least Dropbox gets the endpoint-to-server encryption right.
