This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Black and white are English words at least a thousand years old. They've taken on numerous positive, negative and neutral connotations over time. But all that heritage and utility doesn't matter, and must be denied, because in 2023 it doesn't suit some people's politics to use 'black' in any context besides referring to a black person.
I think that's a very sad and limiting attitude toward language.
I think calling a block list "black" and an allow list "white" makes no sense.
Allow/block makes sense. White/black makes no sense. Words have meaning, let's use them properly.
If you're upset about changing the words to better explain what they do, you're racist. There's literally no reason to oppose a word change when it makes it easier to understand.
