I don't find this surprising.

I've consulted for things like hotel groups. Without fail, there are vendors selling this sort of thing, with instructions like "forward telnet port from the internet to our device".

You can try to push back, and sometimes you will be successful, but you can't blame a hotel manager for saying "well this is what they do for a living.. they would know best".




That's fine as long as it's on paper; that way, the hotel (for example) can sue them and not be held liable in case of trouble. In theory anyway.
