I&#x27;m just a user of Dropbox and I don&#x27;t even have acquaintances there. And I&#x27;m not an US citizen, I&#x27;ve blamed the US repeatedly for their external policies, so I can definitely sympathize with anti-war efforts and public shaming of the people that contributed.<p>But this smells like negative PR triggered on purpose by competition. It also happened with Mozilla&#x27;s Brendan Eich as well.<p>One has to wonder, why doesn&#x27;t this happen with bigger companies, like Microsoft, Google or Apple? I can tell you why. It&#x27;s because they&#x27;ve got big PR and legal departments. But pumping money to avoid PR disasters is not the same thing as having a moral consciousness.<p>Plus the idea that Dropbox is more susceptible to wiretapping than the equivalents provided by Google, Apple, Microsoft or Amazon is absolutely laughable given that Dropbox is the only one on this list for which cloud storage is the product being sold and not something complementary. But yeah, fight the man.
