We can't just keep saying "Don't be the dropbox guy" as a comeback to criticism of new technology. Anyone who uses that phrase should have to place a bet in a prediction market that only pays out if the product they're talking about succeeds. Blindly supporting stuff out of a sort of "Pascal's Wager against looking foolish later" should have some cost if you're wrong.

Let’s default to being supportive and very careful with being negative.

That kind of imbalance makes it easier for scammers and hucksters to get away with things. It is not a feelgood prescription with no cost.

This is another cost of scamming: the cynicism it creates.

I completely agree with you. This is just a web front-end, and there's nothing new about it. However, it's very easy. It's not easy to create something like this.

Wind your neck in.

I simply asked "is there anything new in this?" because, i was interested to know if, you know, there was anything new in this.
