    The year can be easily checked online and you usually keep your phone besides you on the night stand

      I’d think it was funny because without a lot more evidence I wouldn’t believe it true.

      Don’t get me wrong some pranks are dick moves, but, this… nah

      Or after you spend a few minutes waking up and realizing you’re in the same clothes, in the same spot, and none of your stuff has moved.

          No. Many certificates are only valid for a couple months to years into the future. Many websites wont work if you set your system time to +5 years, because most certificates won’t be valid for that time.

        Yeah, but even without network time updates your device’s internal clock is probably accurate enough to be able to tell if 2 years have passed or not. If it has an error of ≥2 years per 2 years, you need a new clock.

          The premise was that the spouse set the phone clock into the future. That has nothing to do with how accurate the RTC is (usually <10s/day)
