PSA and reminder:
The terms "blacklist" and "whitelist" are racially charged. Please use "blocklist" and "allowlist" instead.
Yes, the terms are old. Yes they're not directly based on race. But they _are_ based in the systemic idea that "white == good; black == bad". Just because something is traditional doesn't mean it's acceptable.
It took me a while to see just how insidious little things like this are, too. It's ok to take some time to understand. Just please switch terms while you do.
I've said already that those aren't the only acceptable terms, and that I opted out of an exhaustive list for simplicity. The point is "avoid these; here are some alternatives". With some "address common responses" to minimize how overwhelmed I might get responding to the same questions repeatedly.
Missed one, apparently.
