You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
I'd like to be able to share a folder of files to be viewed, but no downloaded, I cannot find where to disable this feature...

In Google Drive, you can allow others to view your file while preventing them from printing or downloading files. Especially with media content, e.g. ads, where copyright and intellectual property is involved, protecting files from being downloaded is crucial. I hope this feature gets added. Thanks!

Chris J., I am not seeing a similar option to that of Google Drive from the two links you sent. I also want to prohibit uploads from being downloaded or printed and only want them to be viewed.

That's not possible. The view-only option allows someone to view and/or download the file. There is no option to prevent it from being downloaded.
