Unfortunately, people get really upset if you go off and hit network
services automatically due to an assumption of it being "phoning home"
or similar malware.  Even when it's something as innocuous as a time
sync.

Also, you have to be careful in how you do time syncing as it makes a
difference for whether you want to be using the hwclock as UTC or not
