No, and I don't think they ever will - they took long enough to implement Selective Sync. They'd rather have a product that can be seen as 'simple', than one that could have users ask "why can't this person see my files?".
- gcv 15y agoGood point, and I think Dropbox can remain simple by default. It could then support an additional "advanced sharing" feature. This would allow exactly two extra flags per shared folder, per user: (1) share read-only, and (2) share non-transitively. This should allow sufficient granularity for most access-control use cases out there. Anyone who doesn't understand what this means wouldn't use the "advanced" sharing features, and many more small businesses would be able to start using the product.
