Dropbox Vault was discontinued in March, around that time members received notifications with the following message:
"To concentrate our efforts on further improving our existing security features and building new capabilities around advanced data protection, we’ve made the decision to discontinue Dropbox Vault.
From March 4th Dropbox Vault will no longer be available. If you’re currently using your Vault, that folder will automatically turn into a standard Dropbox folder, that doesn’t require a PIN to access. The files in your folder will remain the same."

If there's nothing to stop others from breaching it,
If there’s nothing protecting our data, how can we truly have privacy?
It means the government could access it easily – that’s not privacy at all.What used to be called a privacy breach is now becoming normal.
To stay private, we need to use real storage options that actually protect our data.- Megan4 months ago
