Be aware that there are members of the NTP pool with less-than-honorable intentions and you don't get to pick-and-choose. Yes, they all should provide the time, but they also get your IP address.

For example: unlike the IPv4 space, the IPv6 space is too big too scan, so a number of "researchers" (if you want to call them that) put v6-capable NTP servers in the NTP pool to gather information about active v6 blocks to scan/target.
