If the content is sensitive you can either encrypt the data yourself
before it goes to Dropbox (see e.g. ecryptfs) or use a service that does
this as part of its process (see e.g. spideroak).

Not that I have anything against doing thing other ways - I'm just
pointing out that privacy concerns don't, of themselves, mean you can't
use Dropbox (or similar).
