What the fuck Dropbox!

How do I get rid of the backdoor in /Library/Application\ Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db even after uninstalling Dropbox.app and rm -rf'ing ~/.dropbox and /Library/DropboxHelperTools? Do I just sudo sqlite3 and delete the row? Or is there an official tool (tccutil)?

Edit: Crap, there's a /Library/Extensions/Dropbox.kext too now. :(

I did this:

sudo sqlite3 /Library/Application\ Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db

sqlite> delete from "access" where (service=="kTCCServiceAccessibility" and client=="com.getdropbox.dropbox");

...and it seems to have done the trick.
