If items in a fireproof safe are purposefully set on fire with a fully closed and locked safe, are contents outside of the safe generally safe from fire?
The safe can be placed in a secluded spot and on stone.

Additionally, in general, what digital signals (if any, reliably) are able to penetrate a locked safe?
For hard-drive and chip-storage destruction, its hard to beat a drill or a hydraulic press. holes, or snapping the storage-medium in half will generally do. From there to recyclers or landfill, either is less toxic to the environment than burning the stuff in a PC or phone.
I assume you mean radio frequencies, and the answer is basically none. A grounded fireproof safe is basically a perfect faraday cage.
Yes. Ok well that complicates things, but I suppose a piece of string small enough may be able to dangle out of the closed door and maybe be slightly moved…
Note, @disorderly@lemmy.world is referring to metal-safes, not the plastic file-safe crap you’ll find in Walmart.
