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.
 }}}
