Do you happen to have any source for this? I try to find information on Dropbox removing individual files, even supposedly "illegal" files, from one's account but can't find confirmation so far.

Indeed. From my communication with Dropbox support:

Katie, Feb 5, 8:56 AM PST: Hi Alexander,

Thank you for contacting Dropbox. My name is Katie, and I will be helping you today.

It appears that your links are disabled because you may be hosting malware from your account and this is against the terms of service.

Can you please remove all malware from your account or your account will be disabled. Any further violations of the terms of service will result in the immediate deletion of your account with no warning.

The file that needs to be removed from your Dropbox is: old-stuff.rar

Once this has been addressed I would be happy to assist you further!

Thank you.

Regards, Katie The Dropbox Team

Dropbox does read and analyses my files.
