Solved by manikyath,
if you only block inbound communication, your device can still send information to the blocked address, just not receive a reply.
if you only block outbout communication, your device can still receive information from a blocked address, just not send a reply.
in the first case, a compromised system can still leak data.
in the second case, a compromised system can still receive commands.
it's not because your example application can no longer work, that a specificly crafted application cannot.
