I mean, your IP is being crawled by random bots dozens of time per day, what's the difference between that website and the traffic your IP gets already?

I remember thinking that ads in server logs was a new one to me.I still get so. many. random people entering passwords and trying to break in. They don't look like a wordlist or automated bots, they're literally people guessing.
Just because you see a username and password screen after you nmap this public IP, doesn't give you the right to start trying to hack it.
You ought not try random usernames/passwords on someone's public server, I agree. But if you expose a public server that lets someone type a username/password, you had best be ready for someone to guess values.
