Thus spake "Alexei Roudnev" <alex@relcom.net>
Hmm, if some idiot wrote my NTP IP into his hardware, I just stop to monitor my NTP and make sure that it have few hours of error in time. No one require me to CLAIM that I set up wrong time, BUT no one can require me to maintain correct time just because some idiots use my server.
What most people participating in this subthread seem to be missing is that if one did decide to send (or accidentally sent) false time to these D-Link devices, NOBODY WOULD EVER KNOW OR CARE. Doing so does not solve any problems, so whatever the legal risk of acting is, no matter how small, it's not worth it. On the plus side, after seeing D-Link's (lack of) reaction to this, I'll bet none of us will buy another of their products again.
