I have noticed this with contractors on Upwork and have unfortunately had to recently start forcing time tracking for the first time. I used to default to trusting people, but I've recently had developers who were billing 50-60 hours after working somewhere near 0.

This is unfortunately also pushing me toward daily standups, which I have also avoided my entire career so far.

It is unethical, certainly. But it also hurts the honest people who don't do it.
