The problems are just getting worse and worse. It appears the since Dropbox deleted files, it is now synchronising with my PC to delete those same files. I have lost all photographs of my recently deceased wife. I cannot express my anger and disgust in words. This is shameful. I can not have any trust that important files can be confidently backed up on Dropbox. You have now deprived me of the memories from almost 50 years of marriage. This is shameful.
It just gets worse and worse. You have now wiped virtually files including critical work files in Documents on my PC. Your application is out of control. First you delete and in some cases destroy the files beyond recovery on Dropbox and then you have synchronised those deletions on my PC. This may now cost me my job. This is disgraceful.
I have now disconnected from Dropbox. I can no longer trust it as a reliable backup.
