<![CDATA[Got an email from #Dropbox about their new TOS.]]>Got an email from about their new TOS. I'm troubled by this passage: "We’ve further explained our collection and use of your data to better identify what data is being used for which purposes."

Has anyone dug deeper into this? What do they mean by "collection and use of your data"? What data are they collecting? How are they using it? For which purposes?

This vague sentence can apply to some pretty dystopian consequences.

Why would someone do that?
