Scientists occasionally add leap second to universal time in order to correlate the day with mean solar time and this has applied since 1972. Though there is nothing new about leap time addition to the time of day (which is typically 24 hours), the use of Internet is though to be dangerous this coming June. Experts have talked about it in detail and here I am sharing a
CNN report for you people to read.
It is a very
insightful piece about leap second and its possible threat to the Internet. Will Internet be impacted by leap second or not, it remains to be seen. Experts, however say, it will be wise to avoid using the Internet for a few seconds, especially at 12.
