That's already a thing, Google GPS based NTP servers with a TCXO or Rubidium reference. You can buy one for ~2000$ that will use GPS, or Cellular as a time reference, and can add options like a Temperature controlled crystal oscillator (TCXO), or a Rubidium reference (basically, small atomic reference).

Interesting. So, are you saying it's a start on my idea or what I'm proposing? As in, can it currently sync the servers in multiple datacenters to the point they could operate with microsecond spreads?
