Security: Once your box is connected, you are vulnerable to infiltration and attacks. The "perfect" security for computers is to never connect it to a network. If you want an example, the FBI has a storage facility in Lehi, Utah, to capture and record all information, be it telephonic or internet.

Complexity: Operating systems (Linux, OSX, Windows, etc.) have entire subsystems to support networking. Network connectivity affects timing, data flow, secondary storage, etc. Most people expect programs (apps) to support network connectivity.
