Comment (by cypherpunks):
> But I don't think those things would preclude Tor Browser from doing the
safer thing and a) getting an accurate clock from <something>
you could get clock from trusted DirAuthority or any other of the 1000's
of relays :)
TLDR:
{{{
sets the local clock by securely connecting with TLS to remote
servers and extracting the remote time out of the secure handshake.
}}}
