Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Getting your time
from HTTP responses is _vastly_ inferior to NTP.

I'm also not quite sure what good they think they're doing. I'd
say that HTTP is the more dangerous of the two.

If they're worried about punching holes in their firewall, they
could limit it to (NTP) traffic to and from an ISP NTP server.
Presumably they trust their ISP for that, given that they trust
everybody and his dog HTTP-wise.
