It is true that I can't philosophically prove that arbitrary hypothetical technology that would achieve something currently nigh-equivalent to magic cannot possibly exist, nor can I philosophically prove the data isn't there any more, yes. I can say there is no evidence for either, and expertise and evidence against both, and that "but you can't prove it isn't true!" isn't a very good argument.
