New ask Hacker News story: Dropbox requires a kernel extension to work

Dropbox requires a kernel extension to work
2 by dikaio | 5 comments on Hacker News.
I was installing dropbox via homebrew and I was prompted with the message "dropbox requires a kernel extension to work." and also a Warning "No checksum defined for cask 'dropbox', skipping verification." that there was no checksum to verify the file. I'm weary of installing apps that require access to the kernel or administrative access... should I be concerned?
