Apparently some group has broken Bambus encryption.

Apparently, as he claims, the logs reveal not only (further) licensing issues with Bambu, they also apparently send the complete Model you want to print to Bambu, which would be a huge issue for any companies using them.

What do you think?
Anyone ever checked on the size of the logs? Does it make sense that they actually send the whole Model?

/e: clarification, apparently the logs do not get sent to bambu by default on every print (even while in LAN-Mode) as it can be understood here, but all of this info is in the logs you can manually choose to send to Bambu (i.e. in the case of an issue with a print(/er) bambu is reasonably likely to ask for this).

What about the fact that LAN only mode also allegedly still sends logs and data?

Clarification says it still logs, but doesn't send off the logs in LAN only mode.

What about not connecting the printer to the internet and use the SD card?

Sure, and we can also just not use the heated printhead and only print using spaghetti.

Some people want to use network capabilities, but not if they always phone home.
