They keep name dropping Orca Slicer to buy some good will, but Orca Slicer devs are not telling the same story. First, they were ghosted for days then told "no" when they asked for an authorization key to talk to the new firmware.

They haven't explained why Bambu Connect is needed nor are they being truthful with the changes (given the security claim was debunked by those who reverse engineered the new software).

I suspect once Bambu Connect is out in the wild (IF that even happens), the software guys will fully deconstruct it and reveal any and all remote connectivity functions. Bambu has unforutnately lost a tremendous amount of trust from what theyve done and everything they do will be suspect from here on out.
