Copyright issues on dropbox's end means disabling of my account on my end?
Personally, I never read anything that said that dropbox didn't know how to allow a user to allow access to files or not. Meaning, anywhere else on the internet I go, I can expect that at the very l...

Thank you for your service mark, but I said “Meaning, anywhere else I go at that price point I can choose WHEN instead of just IF” and “copyright issues on DROPBOXs end” explains the issue as such: Dropbox does not allow me to take away content I shared from being used by ex-business partners (download files are shown also) so there are plenty of copyright issues.
Now, as stated, I am a Public Domain artist, unless I give PERMISSION to someone to copyright it as theirs. But he no longer has MY permission. You see the problem and mental anguish dilemma now?

Sorry, your post still hardly makes any sense.
If you are having copyright issues file a DCMA request via https://help.dropbox.com/account-settings/copyright-policy
However, for anything more than them deleting the shared link to the file you need to speak to an Attorney as thats outside of Dropbox jurisdiction.

So it doesn’t make sense that I expect to have full control over if AND when my business partners are allowed to view files? And to see if those files were downloaded at least? And that since I didn’t know how their permissions model is scandalously scammy before hand that any legal costs will certainly come from their deeper pockets? Is this a learning issue or comprehension? Because I couldn’t have been more clear in my reply.

I mean, I happen to be a lawyer myself. And I can figure out why my complaint (that was easy to follow, esp the reply) would not be seen or even attempted to be fixed by anyone out there, seeing as I am also new here.
(And how that would bring about its own litany of violations.)except for you? How do I know whether you work for Dropbox?
