We constantly receive questions and complains about the clock be wrong on the desktop. That's because it is set to UTC for everybody to avoid splitting the anonymity set.
We had a task about documentation for a while [1]. It's even a broken window assigned to me, *shame* :) [1] https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5842 Then today I realized that a complementary way of looking at the problem would be to remove that clock from the desktop. Furthermore, some people tried to edit their locations from that applet, possibly leaking more info. People will still have a wrong time in timestamps otherwise: from Pidgin, when running `date`, etc. but at least not directly visible on the desktop. The rational here is to not display anything instead of displaying something wrong. What do you think? Shall we set a deadline for this discussion in two weeks? October 3.
