Looks like Bambu is getting more enshittified. I am so glad I didn't let my recent frustration at my clumsiness with my Prusa steer me into Bambu-land.

Just for the record I looked at how they encrypt and sign the data and it's nothing I would call over the top or particularly troublesome.
Signing data that's used to configure a piece of hardware isn't unreasonable in my book.

It would certainly be better to have a mechanism for custom tags, and better yet the ability for you to trust a filament producers key, but the mechanism they've used for the signing really doesn't say anything to me of note.
