These files and folders that appear in the Viewed Links folder also show up for me when I search my Dropbox account for files, and they are tagged "shared by" and include files size info.
Are these files/folders actually taking up storage space on my account? I have no option to delete them, or "leave folder", etc, but I can still download them and re-share them with others.
Can the account that shared these files/folders originally do anything about this on their end?

The person who originally shared the content controls access. If they delete the file or disable the shared link, it will no longer be available to you.

I'm glad it doesn't take storage, but I want to delete the link completely from MY account. If we can delete files that we own, why can't we remove links that we don't want to retain?
