Unplugged in a remote place? You could still get in a car and drive there!
The only safe computer is a computer that has been submerged in liquid lead, cooled, poured into a solid 6m by 6m by 6m concrete cube, placed into the deepest edge of a saltmine and finally detonating a charge and collapsing a mounting over the computer.
That computer will be reasonably out of reach for everyone.
It's also quite useless.

And then someone will find a vulnerability in the thermocouple data processing code and will pwn the box by cunningly heating and cooling the surface above (possibly with low-yield nuclear warheads).
