Dropbox double dips and counts shared folders against you? That seems weird because they're already counting it against the person who uploaded it to begin with. So for a 1GB file they have removed a total of 2GB of quota between the sharer and the receiver.


Yes. And agreed.

I’m sure whoever came up with the idea got a nice raise.


I'm guess its to prevent people from getting a bunch of free accounts and sharing folders between them to create a unified view of larger effective quota.


Except they do the same thing with paid accounts.
