In general, yes.
In this special case: no.
This is a FUSE mountpoint and any user different than the one having
started the FUSE process providing that userspace file system will get
such an output, because the FUSE process providing that userspace file
system will refuse to output _any_ information to that different user,
even to root.
The same happens with for example an EncFS mountpoint, if you do not
allow other users to see your mounted encfs, then the output looks like
this:
mounted, hidden root-inode attributes for that FUSE fs:
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? Dropbox-Encrypted
unmounted, normal directory permissions are visible:
drwx------ 2 oweh oweh 4096 Jan 29 02:09 Dropbox-Encrypted
