Well, go run does not just execute a program. It compiles the program und executes the compiled binary. The execution part doesn't need any internet connectivity, but the compilation step _might_ need one of some dependencies are not available. This is one of the many problems with go run. But note that this is the case for each and every language: You cannot run Java, C#, Rust, FORTRAN, R, whatnot code if dependencies are missing and not retrievable.
