I think allowlist and denylist are better alternatives to whitelist and blacklist. Allow and Deny are more literally what this is about. White and Black are just old metaphors that aren’t clear they are just familiar. Whitelist and Blacklist don’t really have racists backgrounds but it they are part of a longstanding cultural bias that equates white=good and black=bad. Subverting those biases seems like a good idea. |
