There's sometimes an incomprehensible amount of patience in this forum. Is he donating large sums to the server costs that he must be tolerated so long?
Imo new users who it's blatantly obvious will be nothing but a nuisance should be dealt with far earlier and more decisively. It benefits no one to go through the formalities of deliberately waiting and and allowing them to cross more egregious lines before finally taking action.
Honestly surprised they don't start Injection molding everything. 3 years into the war the time for rapid prototyping should be over. Ukraine has the industrial base for it and mass production of very similar component is possibly the worst use of a 3D printer.
Looks like they’re trying to print honeycombed structures.
Bambu lab 3D printers are used British Army FPVs. They are basically the main tool everyone use now to produce low cost FPVs now.
Is there a way to brick these printers in case of hostility?

Not necessarily true anymore, many applications now where 3d printing isnused for mass production for parts which are still too complex for injection molding or has frequent changes.

Plastic injection machines is preferred if the parts are made of normal plastic material and need to produce in large quantity like DJI's sales volume like tens to hundreds of thousands in a month. Down side is time consuming in changing stainless steel molds thet weighs from hundreds of KG to a ton or more thus not cost-effective for production of just a few thousands of component parts.
3D printing machines offer a good option if the output volume is relatively small (several hundreds to thousands in a month), and also using non-plastic materials to make the component parts. Advantage is fast set up time and short time for switching between printing different component parts for the drones.
3D printing machines are also much cheaper in fixed cost/capital expenditure. Though a small machine like a 50 tons plastic injection molding machines can be quite cheap too.
