The moon is mostly to blame for the effect: the gravitational tug slightly distorts the planet, producing tidal friction that steadily slows the Earth’s rotation. To keep clocks in line with the planet’s spin, the International Telecommunication Union, a United Nations body, has taken to adding occasional leap seconds in June or December , most recently in 2016. However, even without adding leap seconds, if Earth spins faster, it could result in GPS satellites becoming useless, as  a half-a-millisecond equates to 10-inches or 26 cm at the equator there are also potentially confusing consequences for smartphones, computers, and communications systems, which synchronize with  Network Time Protocol (NTP)...
