Yup.

Most of these devices are CPE that perform DNS redirection/proxy wrong because they didn't constrain their udp/53 rule in iptables to only work on the "inside" interface.  They then send the packet to their configured DNS server (eg: 8.8.8.8) and rewrite the source address in the packet to be the IP address of the OpenResolverProject.org scanning server.  They then spoof me to 8.8.8.8 and I get the response from there.

I have a unique QNAME per-IP i send, so I can decrypt/decode this to get the original destination to detect this.

I mentioned this in the past, so please don't act so surprised :)
