I'm not a security expert, but from a management standpoint, obfuscation certainly /slows/ (not inhibits) the spread of homebrew Dropbox clients. Homebrew clients have the potential to create lots of customer support issues... To a _conservative, lean organization_, it's better to constrain customer use cases to known good clients than to handle fallout such as "I lost all my data!" "What rev of client were you running?" "zAxX0r'2 m0D51c|< ph3y3Ldr.0p 0.0.69r." That said, I could hope for Dropbox to evolve to a more open (ssh-based?) model, though I'm not a security architect :) |
