    It’s common since quite a few years. And blocklist as counterpart

      Blocklist and allowlist are much more intuitive, so if we ignore all the cultural baggage, these changes are rather sensical.

        Not everything is related to skin color Jesus. The world isn’t so black and white.

        Cultural baggage? Neither term has any roots in racism, blacklist came from a play and whitelist came about as the opposite of blacklist

          It comes from the act of voting using a black or white ball. Black was a no vote, white was yes. It goes back to ancient Greece.
