Just to close the loop on this I found this article: https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7dd3d/we-need-to-stop-saying-blacklist-and-whitelist > The developers of Chromium, the open source codebase that underpins Google’s Chrome browser, as well as the competing Microsoft’s Edge, [announced in 2019](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/styleguide/inclusive_code.md) that “terms such as ‘blacklist’ and ‘whitelist’ reinforce the notion that black==bad and white==good.” That’s why since then its developers are using “blocklist” and “allowlist.” Basically good enough for Google the word `blocklist` will become the new word 😄 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
