[BlueOnyx:24090] Whitelist / Blacklist terminology

[Michael Aronoff]

I hope this does not come across as too PC for some people but I would like
to humbly request that as new updates are made this project consider
replacing the Whitelist/Blacklist terminology in favor of denylist/allowlist
or blocklist/passlist. 

 

The Linux team have just made the same change and I think it is a good idea
to follow suit. I have also just made a donation at http://www.blueonyx.it/
to help cover the time such a change would take.

-like-blacklist-and-slave/ 

 

Thank You,
