EVERY PRINTER running such network blob is a potential backdoor into your network to ALL your devices.

Replying to @josefprusa
The catch worth underlining on that Creality line: CWE-494 isn’t just a license footnote, it’s a live supply chain hole. Fetching an unsigned blob and running it from a server you don’t control means anyone who compromises or MITMs that endpoint can push code to every machine that pulls it. That’s a potential RCE path onto my shop floor, not just a missing source tarball. This is the part that should scare working pros, not just the FOSS crowd.

"Design" means functionality first, if you fail to achieve functionality and manufacturability your going to have a bad time.

if your part can't be made on a 3-axis mill you're probably overdesigning it. 5-axis machining is for aerospace and medical implants, not your startup's housing. every undercut and internal feature doubles your cost and lead time. design for manufacturing isn't a suggestion, it's basic engineering competence.

This is not the only case and wont be the last. We´d also like to highlight that running obfuscated non compliant code adds an uncalculateable risk for security breaches and malfunction. Which in our opinion puts the compliance with several regulation into question.
Stumbled on this Elegoo non compliance on Reddit 😳 Let me check what community designed patent applications they have 🤔 (I wrote about gov sanctioned patent bombing, link in second post) But then I stumbled on the page footnote 🤯 "A related but separate network traffic issue was discovered where the Centauri Carbon generates excessive data usage (70GB per month while idle)." CCP holds equity in Elegoo via two funds, just saying ....

Our video with @robertferanec specifically about Pre certified modules (like Esp32 etc.) is online. we go over some of the CE vs FCC differences. what it means for your certification journey, common misconceptions and typical hardware startup examples. youtu.be/CTPb7etzOmA?si=R9B2…

There ia a reason devices are built the way they are. And often the reason is something you never think about as a consumer.
