When I click "Sign", it times out of some remote connection in about 10 seconds and says "server did not answer".
I'm trying to just sign a TX hex I copied from a watch only.
I can do it perfectly on 2.7.11.

Why would Electrum need to contact a server in order to sign a transaction?

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.
