Not nearly enough people have read the article and instead make rash decisions based on a misleading clickbait headline that has since been changed to "Dropbox spooks users with new AI features that send data to OpenAI when used
"
Specifically asking the AI search tool to analyze a file for you kinda requires sending that file to OpenAI to be analyzed. And it even asks you if it’s okay first.
It’s just corps being corps. Even the guy who literally gave 10,000 people AIDS didn’t get jail time. The Dropbox execs will be lucky to get anything more severe than a bouquet and a box of chocolates. We all know that, and no amount of demanding will do jack shit. Only your wallet has a voice that gets heard.
That’s not good for your mental or physical health. I’ve been pissed off for too long. Just share the news stories and suggest alternatives, and never give the corps any money or data if you can help it.
ITT: not nearly enough people demanding that Dropbox execs go to prison for massive violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

That’s not a reason to get complacent about it; that’s a reason to get even more pissed off.

No thanks, Sybok.
