But not having a backdoor is not the only issue that breaks this security. You also have to make sure that your system isn't going to snitch on you. You should avoid having any closed source software, and also avoid having any Chromium-based programs or browsers installed (such as Google Chrome, Google Chromium, Vivaldi, Opera, Brave, Microsoft Edge, React, etc) outside of a locked down virtual machine, as not all open source software is safe for this. There is a level of privacy and safety needed. If partially closed source software (such as Firefox, a few of its components out of its control are closed source) can't be avoided, choose the software with the least closed source components, and go for trust (Firefox is falling out here, I will need to replace with Waterfox, or another browser soon)

The good people at Lenovo didn't see fit to put any USB-A 3.x ports on the back of this machine, and only one USB-C port on the front bezel. This is one of those LOQ Towers, so it's actually quite something to behold, and I hate the way cables coming out of the front of it looks.
If I wanted to solve this very decidedly first world problem, and I haven't had my hands inside a computer since the early 2000's (except to bust dust), I would need some advice.

It's PCIe now, I know that much looking at Windows device manager. What version is relevant to my purpose and how do I figure that out
The only other thing in the stupid thing is a NVIDIA RTX 3050, which is a bit of a chonker. It doesn't look like there's another PCIe slot that it's obscuring. Even if there were, it doesn't look like I could move the support bar for it down any further. This seems to foreclose expanding the USB port situation altogether
I found an empty four-pin connector on the board labeled USB. Is this another way to the USB hub on the motherboard What does that rabbit hole look like

Related:
I've got to have a new powered, table-top USB hub, regardless of the outcome with the port expansion in the tower. I like Anker. I'd love some thoughts on that.

Meta:
What on earth makes a USB PCIe card so expensive
I though port austerity was a Mac thing. What is the rationale behind putting zero USB 3, a paltry four USB 2, and no USB-C ports on an ostensibly full-size tower in 2023
