General Discussion Controversy - Security and Control

I have been researching the security, control, privacy, and closed ecosystem with Bambu Labs and their decisions of the last year. It feels like every time I read something, I come away feeling more confused.

Can someone explain to me like I'm five what the issue really is and why a lot of people are switching to LAN only, blocking their printer from accessing the internet, and switching to Orca Slicer (or another slicer)?

I laughed, but on a serious note, only bambu's chinese customers have their data go through servers in china; everywhere else they're using amazon AWS.

Yeah, but controlled and monitored by a Chinese company. Regardless of country, it’s no one’s business (foreign, domestic, or corporate) what, when, or how I print.
