I think you're looking at it the wrong way around. The question isn't whether you have access to the Internet; the question is whether the server on the other end is up.
Products that require an Internet connection to function are effectively time bombs that stop working at some future date, due to an incident or a change in someone else's business.
I didn't say that was a "problem", but since it's harder to write a tool like this that fails when a server is down than to write one that keeps working... the question is why?
