    I'll be opening a Dropbox account as soon as I figure out what they do.

    Great phone app for cloud storage.
    Take a pic on your phone, and it's automatically available at your PC when you get home.
    Torrent .apk files and they're automatically available for your smart phone.

    It's failure is the 2GB limit against Box.com's 10GB

    Doesn't matter if a gay, Nazi, baby-murderer ran the company, Dropbox is a good app.

    I thought Republicans liked Rice when she was working for their boy George. Too bad after she was picked up by Obama she became public enemy #1 for these guys.

    The other interesting thing I learned today was that Rice was going to work for the internet by getting picked up for DropBox. I don't use their service but it's not a bad line of work. How can she go wrong working on the internet?

    This is absolutely the new idiocy from these liberal loons. Their comments below exemplify the hypocrisy, they say they don't trust Rice with giving personal info to dropbox, yet they are the first idiots who trust Obama with Obamacare where all that private info is stored, and he supports the surveillance. Un(*)(*)(*)(*)ing believable

    “This is deeply disturbing, and anyone – or any business – who values ethics should be concerned,” says a blog post on Drop-Dropbox.com, a site that’s leading the call for the boycott. “Given everything we now know about the U.S.’s warrantless surveillance program, and Rice’s role in it, why on earth would we want someone like her involved with Dropbox, an organization we are trusting with our most important business and personal data?”

    Rice committed multiple acts of treachery against the people of USA.

    She lied about and participated in the fraud that committed USA to wars against Afghanistan and Iraq.

    She was an accomplice in the wilful acts of negligence by USA agencies in the surveillance of terrorists prior to 911

    She was an accomplice to the 911 false flag attacks

    She evaded the questioning of the 911 commission

    Guilty on all counts. Now she is filling her pockets with blood-stained dollars.

    What corporations are not made up of people? Do you comprehend why corporations are fictitious "persons" under the law? So they can sign contracts and all that? Or do we have to have this argument in only small emotional sentences?

    Rice is a black Conservative female, that's all the Left needs to know to come out against her. If she was a proud supporter of HRH Obama I, they would be calling this the best move Dropbox could make.

    Umm...people used their wallets with Mozilla too. Some even sacrificed their jobs. People quit their jobs at Mozilla over it. That's pretty serious. Not sure what you're talking about. BTW, you did not answer my question. Do you think people should have a voice about these things or not?

    This is clearly the bigoted left wing going after anyone that doesn't agree with them. Pathetic. But when the shoe will be on the other foot please don't whine about it.

    Quitting a job is far more than desiring a voice, its actually really stupid in this economy. For a mere donation made years ago? The adherence to emotion over logic is rather senseless. What idiot would hire someone after quitting for such a petty reason? I hope more gays follow that path, poverty will shut them up...

    Seems these boycott cowboys aren't happy unless they're pissing in someones cereal. When they call for a boycott of Obama speeches because he lies & spies I'll take them seriously, until then, "F"em.

    Augusta National is the model for how to deal with whiny malcontents. Remember when the women's rights groups went after Augusta for not having any female members? The feminists threatened the sponsors of the Masters with boycott's and demanded Augusta allow female members. It was a big deal on the networks. So, Augusta members said,. OK, you want to play that game, fine and proceeded to fund telecasting the event themselves. Not only did they do it, but they did it with fewer commercials and increased the length of coverage. In the end the nutty protesters were left looking like idiots, the sponsors who bowed to them lost a huge viewing audience and Augusta, well, they just went about their business.
    Of course, today, Augusta does have female members, but it's because they decided to invite them, not because they were pressured by a group of whiny, agenda driven protesters.

    Not long ago, Gramps had nobody to vent his anger to. He could only scream at the TV. He had to wait for family gatherings like Christmas and Thanksgiving to complain to actual people about those darned hippies and progs... and how their ruining America.

    Now, the old codgers have the Web, where they can rant all day about 'libs'.

    Rice was an active participant in the violation of the bill of rights with the invasive NSA violation of privacy consequent to Rice's complicity in 911 atrocity.

    Rice is a traitor and liar and doesn't belong in any decent organization.

    Actually it's your main weak point. You guys already control every other institution in society. the government, the culture, academia, the media. but you don't rule the internet. That's why you guys have been so anxious to regulate it. Ever since Dan Rather's Bush military records fraud was exposed by bloggers we've had a way to fight back against the party line. You guys are the party line.
