A completely botched response from Dropbox.
They had two options:
1. Disregard the concerns raised as those of a vocal minority, while the overwhelming majority of their users are apathetic about Rice's appointment; refuse to legitimize the concerns by publicly acknowledging them and wait for the whole thing to blow over;
2. Acknowledge the concerns as legitimate, and damaging to users' trust in their business; as a business that depends so heavily on the trust of its users, admit an error of judgment and remove Rice from the board.
Instead, they have legitimized and publicized the concerns, but are refusing to do anything about it. They're going to get a kicking for this. Someone pass the popcorn?
