100 GB is a great value proposition. Is it E2E encrypted?

I doubt it would be. Dropbox’s model for file storage has always been to encrypt the data with its own key on the server.

.. and to also de-duplicate files across users to avoid repeatedly storing the same file.

Probably not since AFAIK Dropbox uses deltas to transfer file changes. It's entirely possible they worked on a totally new tech for this, but I doubt it.
