They do. They send data over HTTPS from the Dropbox client, and they store it "encrypted" on S3, but they hold the encryption keys and also have full access to the unencrypted data while it's in memory on the servers.
Turtl encrypts all data with the user's personal key before it leaves the client, meaning the server has no access to the unencrypted data.
As far as hashing in the client, that's true, we actually could do that, and it might be a viable option if we ever implement public file sharing. Right now, all sharing is person-to-person (and private).
