Needing to upload files to third party servers just to get them onto your personal computer doesn't solve the case. It just injects a middleman.



How does it not solve the problem? The data shows up on the other end. The fact that you don't agree with the implementation is a different thing, but it does solve the case.

It "solves" it but in a way that's ten times slower and fundamentally unreliable.


For small files maybe. As shocking as it may seem, most Dropbox users just have the free version, with very limited space. Same for Google Drive or One Drive.


And only works when you’re connected to the internet.
