You have 2 options
1) Replace the circuit breaker with a GFCI circuit breaker. That will
take care of the entire circuit. Consult lanlord first.

2) If you know which is the first outlet that gets fed from the
breaker box, change that to a GFCI and it will protect all other
outlets downstream of it. It does not make sense to change every
outlet to a GFCI . You only need to change 1 and it will protect the
others. Keep in mind if there is a ground fault somewhere, it will
kill power to most locations and you have to reset it at the GFCI
outlet.


There's a third option: Using a Dremel, saw off the grounding lug on the
three-prong plug.

I just use channel lock pliers. They rip right out in about two seconds.
But the OP mentioned "safety," so it sounds like (s)he's the nervous
type who views electricity as a violent serial killer, just waiting to
chew its way through double insulated plastic appliances to strike at
hapless and innocent victims.
