We actually had some remote crunch time last year, and it's clear that some of the colleagues who were working 12 hours/day last year are working 0 hours/day now, because it takes them days just to fix a typo.
I don't think most people try to abuse it. A lot of people are reciprocal. If you trust them, they try not to abuse that trust. But most business relationships are simply take as much as you can from each other. These are also the same ones that don't trust their employees to work remote. You hear a lot of anonymous stories from HN about employees who slack off, and it always starts with hating their work environment.
