I don't think this is plausible (government mandate of remote attestation for any kind of Internet access), but if this happens, then I just add smallest and cheapest PC possible (think Atomic Pi) with this remote attestation hardware capability (Proton/TPM/whatever) to the separate VLAN on my home network (so it can't access any other host on LAN side of the router) and forget about the little thing until it fails, e.g. for next 15 years or so. I wouldn't trust this device with my data, I wouldn't run any meaningful applications on it, heck I won't ever attach any monitor or human input devices to the damn thing.

As I explain[0] in response to a sibling comment, sadly it won't be enough (eventually) to have just one locked down device on your home network, they will all have to be individually locked down to access the internet.
