It was quite a stupid and expensive ride, but they were vindicated, especially on point 3:

>Our business is in a stronger position than it's been in years

>What’s energized me most since joining Dropbox is the connection people have with our brand

>It gives me a lot of confidence in what’s ahead for Dropbox

All corporate fluff, no actual content.

Point 3 was not "'viral' or income generating" and DBX pioneered one of the most viral campaigns (give-get) and generates almost $1B a year in free cash flows? How is that vindication?

Their roadmap doesn't exist beyond their one-hit-wonder. CEOs are stepping down because there is no future for the company unless you count acquisition by Amazon or Google or Apple, which will result in the entire company being walked to the grave.

		This is really a non-answer. If your point is "Dropbox is a struggling company and therefore all criticism of it ever is fully validated no matter the timeline" then any criticism of any company ever will be validated eventually which is absurd.
