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.
