Careful! If someone hacks your server, they now get your Dropbox account.
One alternative is to put these backups into S3 using pre-signed requests rather than Dropbox. An S3 pre-signed request gives permission only to upload files, perhaps only to a certain location in a certain bucket.
It's a bit harder to set up, but the shell script will look almost the same.
