Dropbox StaffHi iviansur, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
It's possible that you might have had this change occur on your shared links, which could result in this behavior.
Are the people accessing the links users who accessed it previously, or new users entirely?
This will help me to assist further!
Hi Jay. Thanks for your prompt response! From the information I can track, it's a mix of both, but primarily new users. I also suspect that links generated by certain team members are triggering this behavior, though I'm not sure how to verify and confirm that.

Do the shared links have edit access or read-only access enabled?
I can only check this through the Activity menu in the admin console. Those who requested (whether intentionally or not) to be added to the team accessed links with viewer and editor access levels. I can investigate internally with the team if you need more specific details.
