I'm still suffering from spam from the last mail address leak, and now this? Time to respect my data and move it elsewhere
EDIT: Dropbox say the leak is from another service that has been compromised. Does anyone know of a service that's been popular enough to store ~7'000'000 user credentials without instead using OAuth? If there is, how did Dropbox not notice that, and how did we ad the Internet community not complain about this service sooner? I assume 7 million accounts aren't immaterial to Dropbox total users.
