In 2007, millions of clocks across Europe fell behind—by minutes—without warning. It wasn’t a software bug or solar storm. It was a political tug-of-war inside the power grid that warped the frequency used to measure time itself. In this eerie Phantom Bytes bonus episode, we explore the strange reality of clocks that listen to electricity, the silent drift that affected homes, factories, and trains, and how modern attackers now manipulate time through NTP spoofing and digital deception. Because when time breaks… everything else follows.
