Hi everyone! I'm the Product Manager for this feature. Thank you all for the feedback! We are planning to update this so the default checkbox is OFF.

Our engineering team is in the middle of this update so this should be rolled out in the next week or 2. Thank you again everyone for your feedback and patience!
I work on a photography team where we all upload our photos daily. Yesterday and today, a few coworkers have told me that they received a notification that I shared folders with them. We've used Dropbox for years but this is the first time I've heard of this happening. When I create a new folder, I noticed two options: "Everyone with Access" and "Specific People"...the first option also has a checkbox that says "Send an email notification", which I uncheck.
Is this a glitch? I can't find a way to turn off the notification and for some reason, that checkbox is checked by default every. Single. Time. I don't want to annoy or bombard my coworkers with unnecessary notifications, so can anyone please help with a solution?
