For wrongly distributed non-readily available military schematics, I think it's safe to say that Occam's razor isn't a great axiom to take.

What kind of solution is there to this? Only trust studies which have been successfully reproduced several times? Raise the bar for an acceptable p value so it becomes less practical to p-hack?

I don't see how this conclusion could follow from a bill limit feature not ever being implemented. That would only make sense if this was about them removing such a feature.

Only difference seems to be that there all ports remain closed (making it obvious that you're using such a method, since you need some way of accessing it too.) And you get some kind of signal about a port opening if you do happen to g

A term isn't dictated by its most extreme usage, the case you're describing is authoritarian censorship. Even having to suggest that a filter that removes keywords apple doesn't want their users to see, just may be sufficient
