To extend what I'm trying to say is that customers shouldn't have to do this and that updating of this data (which ideally should be in a machine readable format, much like ip-ranges.json) is just another step. I would like to hop

Adam Langley's Roughtime protocol[1] largely solves some (but not all types) of time malfeasance, and a variant of it is already an IETF draft specification[2]. There is also NTS, which is secure NTP and provides some protections, but
