Hi Earl, for blacklist/whitelist -- IMHO "blocked signatures" sounds more natural than "blocklist of signatures" or "denylist of signatures" -- maybe it's possible to change the wording to avoid these terms altogether, along the lines of https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/33681/files. If not, "safelist" also sounds like a reasonable replacement for "whitelist" (from https://english.stackexchange.com/a/51111).
