Y om T o v Sheni Yom Tov Sheni - Chidushei Torah@NDS

witnesses gave their testimony to the Beit Din 79 , the Sages tried to find
the best way to communicate the message to the greatest possible
number of people. In the future, thanks to modern communication
technology, the vast majority of the Jewish people should be able to
be notified literally seconds after the testimony is accepted. It would
appear, taking into account the opinion of the Meshech Chochma,
even though the entire Jewish people would be technically obligated
in keeping Yom Tov Sheni if they were not informed of the new month
before a festival, practically everyone will be keeping only one day.
