- I'm starting to see performance problems from #Dropbox – taking lon time to sync, connect. Anyone else? #

- @His_Grace Am searching His Grace's latest posting for any refs linking AIDS & hypodermic needles; are there none? Did His AB-ness make any? #
- @pyr Your discomfort interests me. What makes you feel that way? #
- The "security hole" in #Dropbox is not a real security problem. Sorry. It's just a matter of choice. http://bit.ly/fquqtk #
- @unhosted The perl prototype and mostly-complete django version are linked off http://bit.ly/g2yhSK ; revised port to appengine is underway. #
- How come #Linkedin requires password authentication to "ignore" an invitation to connect, but not to "accept" one? #somemistakesurely #
- @JamesFirth Answer: because links suit their business model more than customer privacy 🙁 #
- @drbexl Exactly – the barrier works in their favour. Big shiny "Accept" link works from e-mail. Saying "I've never heard of you" = password #

- @pyr Interesting assertion; how would you address the point that to have your dropbox "hacked" you must already have been pwned ? #
- @pyr It wouldn't be the first time. Peeking at .rhosts, some more advanced SSH configs, or reading /etc/passwd used to give me the same. #
- @pyr Thing is: the world won't end because of this. You still have to copy the file. At the same time you could install a trojan. So what? #
