On one hand, nice way to collect a database of SSH servers without triggering alarms.

On the other, people using this tool are more likely to take steps to secure their servers.

shodan.io already has a pretty good database of SSH servers. Want to find servers running an old version of OpenSSH? Easily queriable.

There's a decent chance your SSH server is already in this database and many others.

Very good point!
