Wow! 11 years ago Dlink were the ones abusing NTP https://m.slashdot.org/story/67096

Strange how these "mistakes" keep cropping up. Is it laziness, malice, or just ignorance?

Laziness and ignorance (probably not even knowing what they were doing other than just using these ntp servers) at the beginning. I bet someone just “copied and pasted”.

Perhaps it's the same developers making the same stupid mistakes.
