IMHO, this is out of Tor's scope. What is needed here is hardware and
software we control and that will not report one's location without
consent.

Using Tails on a computer which has has no Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth and no
GPS should do the trick if you want to be pretty sure your location will
not be known. On many computers you can still physically remove these
components.
