Collection of data for statistical analysis [on hold]

I have a very fundamental question about statistical analysis:



When collecting data for an analysis, how can we guarantee the authenticity of the results of statistical processing/analysis in a modern society where I guess it is easy to collect only data convenient for the hypothesis we have?



I have tried to come up with numerous explanations with independence etc. But none of them make sense.



Thanks.
