I'm guessing the boycott is over?

[vdaniuk]

Not for me. All I care about this announcement is the hooks that Mamdouh Habib was hanged on while he was tortured in Egypt, sent there by the CIA.

And one of the Dropbox board members was an ardent supporter of this and other despicable practices(also known as torture).

If Daniel Levine is fine with this, then I am definitely not fine with paying, using or promoting his product API.

edit: I switched to spideroak and am quite happy with the product.

[gmacdon89]

I lolled.

[vdaniuk]

Look up the story of Mamdouh Habib. It's really sad, he was tortured physically and mentally, labeled a terrorist and was released without charges by the USG after 4 years in detention.

[galonk]

Nope, switched to BTSync. I'll investigate syncthing and whatever else comes along, but basically anything-but-Dropbox.

[corford]

I gave up on them years ago and switched to spideroak. Haven't looked back since.

[scrrr]

Nope. I won't be back. Using unison now. Syncthing looks nice, too.

[spacefight]

Not for me, I cancelled my account and moved to a self-hosted Owncloud instance.

[davedx]

Another Spideroak migration here. Haven't looked back.

[general_failure]

No way. I moved permanently to unison.

[msoad]

Not for me. I've moved to Google Drive. Cheaper, faster, better and less pro-war!

[sidcool]

Interestingly your name anagrams with mosad.

[spacefight]

But... it's missing the second 's'.

[msoad]

soad = system of a down :)

[mkal_tsr]

Nope, permanently moved to SpiderOak

[cryoshon]

Nope, moved to Google Drive.

[Joeboy]

Owncloud (but without enthusiasm).

[diasp]

https://owner.io/ Hosted in a german data center under the strictest security standards.

[AndrewGreen]

Nope. Actually turned out not to be such a bad thing as it forced me to rethink an implementation approach (using Dropbox APIs) that had seemed like a good idea, and was getting really sticky.

[exarch]

Nope. I'm using ownCloud now on a VPS. Dropbox worked hard to lose my business, and I hate to see hard work go to waste.

[gatehouse]

I won't be sending any more of my personal data, taking Mailbox off my iPhone was sad though.

[amastilovic]

To me, Dropbox is "over". Moved to ownCloud, never looked back.

[cddotdotslash]

Not just a boycott, but I simply have no reason to use Dropbox. It's more expensive, does nothing Google Drive can't do, and on top of that, has all the political issues.
