This just happened to me today!!!! I'm flabbergasted!
It's supposed to be a backup, no where does it suggest that my files will be moved or does it seek approval.
I then contacted support through chat box and they just didn't respond when I told them what happened. I'm so upset that without asking they moved my files then just to completely ignore me. Mind you that it was handlled proffessionally with absouly zero foul language.
This has got to be one of the worst thoughout ideas. I'm am now very worried that files maybe missing and my backups were deleted right before I installed Dropbox.
I'm not a sue happy person but this has been sent to my attornies, terms of service can't cover mis-leading the consumer. I feel extemely violated and I only asked them to help me revert what they had done.

Also didn't realize this initially and am completely turned off. Also almonst deleted everything. I hope that I have now completely removed everything from dropbox from my computer. For years I found it very useful. This action unfortunately moves me to not trust dropbox. Sorry, but this is a pretty big issue.
