Every single clock, even those that are air gapped. Countdown timers lose a minute, stopwatches add a minute. Biological clocks aren’t affected.

      No, the almanac accounts for the leap second since it was created. It doesn’t need to be updated.

      The GPS ‘time zone’ does not account for leap seconds at all and is currently 18 seconds ahead of UTC. The GPS navigation messages from the satellites do however include the current offset.
