A copy of your data that can be easily modified (whether through bugs, malice, or even just you mistakenly deleting a file and Dropbox happily deleting it everywhere for you) is not a backup. It’s definitely way better than nothing, but people relying on Dropbox as the only “backup” will be in for nasty surprises occasionally.

- fknorangesite 4y agoYeah: two is one, one is none.
- chrisseaton 4y agoAll backups are vulnerable to deletion, loss, or corruption. That’s why you have many. Dropbox is no different.
