This example makes that all the more important if people like google
are exposing non UTC compliant data outside their firewall.
There are very valuable NTP servers serving up special timescales
(including TAI), so that would be a totally insane thing to try.
Agreed that there should be a freedom for supplying any time scale
that the users want. It would be nice however, if they could be
distributed using the same vehicule (NTP) but that their "quality,
(TAI,UTC,UT1 or My_TS)" being unambiguously identified in the packet .
Thus, a client could weed out any unwanted data.
They shouldn't be letting them into the public net. Could this be
called temporal terrorism?

It seems to me that the problem here is that the Systemd people picked
default NTP serves without asking the owner/admins of those servers
if that was 1) allowed and 2) a good idea.
Sure, this is what happened with routers a long time ago.
