Deco M5 calls home and asks for current time, every 10 seconds

Hi,
Is there any reason why every Deco M5 calls home (tp-link.com) and checks the time (time.nist.gov anc time-a.nist.gov) every 10 seconds???
I just checked my Pi-hole just to see my three M5's generating 80% och all dns requests on my network.
Is there any reason why the M5 is so unsecure that it has to call mommy and check the time that often?
Can I change it (or turn it off)?
The reason I ask is that my Pi-hole runs on a RPi3 and I'm afraid that the dns-logging will destroy my sd-card due to all writing.
(and I don't want to turn off the logging since it makes the stats useless)
