OK I just went to Microsoft’s expert chat page. They want $5 to answer that question.

I think I will be looking for different software … in the meantime I will be stuck using increasingly-unsecure software. Requiring an Internet connexion to access something like Word or Outlook is an absolute non-starter living here.

You DO NOT have to have an always-on Internet connection to access Office 365 desktop apps, other than to keep it updated and for it to verify your subscription status every so often; the Office 365 online apps (Word Online, Excel Online, etc.) DO live out on the Internet, but if Office 365 is installed to your local machine, you don’t need the online apps.
