Spackle! If there is a port to anywhere outside the computer, spackle
over it. Power, USB, Ethernet, ventilation openings, the works; spackle

Disclosure: I got this from John McAfee, when he was still a funny guy,
many years before he became strange and dangerous and insane and an
international fugitive and dead. He ran a dialup BBS in Santa Clara,
California, and threw monthly pizza parties for his BBSers. Too bad what
he became eventually.
