The is just so unimaginative that I can&#x27;t believe you&#x27;ve ever seen the inside of a large operation. How are you going to sniff traffic that&#x27;s communicating on a private network? And how does trivial sniffability not extend to all unencrypted traffic, ergo nearly everything is public? That&#x27;s a totally useless definition and misses the point entirely.<p>Your point #1 is totally unjustified: you don&#x27;t know what you could learn by <i>e.g.</i> looking at a data structure used internally. #2 shows that you are unable to answer the question of which of Dropbox&#x27;s incentives are satisfied by doing this.
