The flip side of this is that hackers can brick the same machines.....
Depends how its set up. So long as it's fully independent and disconnected from existing digital infrastructure it should be safer. It could be as simple as explosives hard-wired with a buried line running up into some bunker up in the mountains.
By remotely I don't think they meant a long RJ45 cable connected to nothing.
So this doesn't look like a setup that can be fully secure.
Could even be completely fake and just to dissuade China from invading.
That would be clever.
