Publication number: 20230362165Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for identifying accounts having shared credentials. In some implementations, a content management system can collect user login context data when a user logs in to or accesses a user account of the content management system. For example, the content management system can collect client device data, client application data, internet protocol (IP) address data, and/or other data from the user's device when the user logs in to the user account. The content management system can analyze the login context data to determine patterns that indicate that the user account login credentials are being shared among multiple users.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Applicant: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Kapil Yedidi, Anton Mityagin, Sean Byrne, Andrew Scheff

Publication number: 20210117469Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for dynamically selecting and sending content items to a user device based on various network and device conditions are provided. In some embodiments, a listing of images stored within a user account on a content management system may be generated, and a selection probability value may be assigned to each image within the listing. An available capacity level on the user device may be determined, and images may be dynamically selected to be sent to the user device based on the determined available capacity level and each image's selection probability value. In some embodiments, each image's selection probability value may be based on one or more factors. For example, images that have been recently viewed, recently added to a collection of images, and/or shared within a shared virtual space created by the user, may receive higher selection probability values than other images.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2020Publication date: April 22, 2021Inventors: Anthony Grue, Andrew Haven, Andrew Scheff

Patent number: 10282056Abstract: Embodiments are provided for forming share bars including collections of content items. In some embodiments, a user interface may be displayed on a display interface of a user device. The user interface may include a first region including a collection of content items and a second region including one or more contact icons. A first gesture may be detected on the display interface that selects one or more content items from the collection of content items and places the one or more content items in a first share bar associated with a first contact of the one or more contacts. One or more share options may be provided to share the first share bar with a first contact corresponding to the first contact icon.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2014Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: DROPBOX, INC.Inventors: Yi Wei, Joshua Puckett, Andrew Scheff, Abhay Buch, Rajeev Nayak, Tina Wen
