How can I make sure that my shared link recipients can't see each other?

Very simple dropbox user. upload blueprints, copy link, email to vendors. Now all my vendors can see eachother and thats not good. Also it is making my invitees request my permission to access the folders. All im doing is creating folder, copying that link and emailing it to my vendors. What changed and why can they see eachother now. im not paying for a stupid account so i can call customer service.

    Make sure you're sending a view-only shared link, which doesn't require someone to request access. If they're requesting access and you're approving it, then you're adding them to a shared folder, in which case they would see each other since it's meant for collaboration.
