Is Dropbox a safe haven from ransomware?
1) If my local computer and presumably my local network drive were to be encrypted by a ransomware attack, would my Dropbox files also be encrypted? 2) Or is Dropbox a safe place place for my file...

One option that comes to mind would be if Dropbox detects all files on the entire accoint have suddenly changed at once they could keep a backup of the old files for a week and notify the user of the suspicious activity. If the cost of this gives you heartache then they could add it as an option for an additional fee.
