Ask HN: Is macOS ignoring your date and time update settings

1 pointsby dav43over 4 years ago
In the interest of reducing my telemetry footprint, I set my laptop (High Sierra) to not autoupdate the time from apple servers. I&#x27;ve checked using the command &#x27;sudo systemsetup -getusingnetworktime&#x27; -&gt; Off.<p>However, using netted and pinhole, I still see timed trying to update the time from apple servers?<p>Where&#x27;s that privacy I&#x27;m constantly reminded of? Anyone else facing this? Looks like some people were having this issue upwards of 2 years ago via a web search.
