Agreed, most of the wealth generated by most businesses is enjoyed by its customers, not its owners. Take Google or Facebook - while they enjoy huge profits now, and will in the future, their profits are dwarfed by the wealth (search and connection) they have created for their users.
If synchronized clocks are a problem, I wonder why they don't race the neutrino against a photon. Obviously the photon would have to take a different path - maybe bouncing off a satellite.
I wonder how accurate the GPS synchronization is too. I'm wondering if it takes into account different atmospheric conditions and the index of refraction of radio waves in air.
