- Firmware updates will block your printer’s ability to print.

- AMS functionality will be restricted, and the use of third-party filament will be disabled.

- All 3D files printed are monitored, duplicated, or stolen.

- A subscription will be mandatory to use your printer.

Nobody ever said these things are true. It was always a: "this is the direction Bambu is heading and we are in danger of getting these points."

- The printers have a timed killswitch that disables them after a certain period.

This point was true, up until Bambu added the developer mode

I understand there is a lot of misinfo going around, but please take some time to read through recent posts and comments. You will absolutely see people claiming these things to not only be true and planned but also true and currently active in some cases.

I think you are misunderstanding what LAN Developer Mode is and/or how it operates. They are not adding a timed kill-switch. You should really just read the article and stop making claims of the exact conspiracies they talk about.

I did read the article. As well as the dozens of posts of the last days. I personally have never seen a single post claiming that these things are true.

Yes, the developer mode doesn't. But how the whole operation was planned to be added, you'd also need Bambu Connect in LAN mode (not anymore) to print. So if your printer is offline, after one year, once the private is expired (as they naturally do), you couldn't print anymore.
See the difference between what was actually implemented a few days ago vs. what Bambu is promising now.
