=== Debate over "bricking" terminology ===
=== Debate over "bricking" terminology ===
The debate has also extended to the definition of "bricking." Some community members assert that if a printer is unable to accept new print jobs without an update, it effectively becomes non-functional and qualifies as being "bricked." Others counter that as long as certain offline functionalities remain (such as SD-card printing) the term does not accurately apply.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/1i45iy2/bambu_lab_reserves_the_right_to_brick_your/m7sezlg/</ref>

=== Privacy Policy issues ===
Bambu Lab's privacy policy, under "Personal Data that we collect," explicitly states: "3D Model in each client ('Printing Files') and other information related to the print job we may store, including start times, finish times, filament consumption and other relevant information."<ref>https://bambulab.com/en-us/policies/privacy</ref> This contradicts their claim that they do not monitor 3D prints. Additionally, the privacy policy webpage is notably excluded from the Wayback Machine, raising concerns about transparency and accountability in their data practices.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20250000000000*/https://bambulab.com/en-us/policies/privacy</ref>
