Anyone saying that Dropship has legal uses is wrong -- you're stealing from Dropbox by using it whether you're sharing your academic, public-domain dataset or your pirated movie.
Dropship sidesteps the TOS of Dropbox by letting users get unlimited sharing bandwidth. Dropbox itself has a share feature which uses the exact technical mechanism by which Dropship works, except it also puts rate limits and caps on sharing.
OT: This is probably the worst comments thread I've ever read on HN. It's like an echo-chamber telephone game. Jeez.
