It was absolutely bonkers watching the raddle king make false equivalencies between the terms “blacklist” and “brown-nose”.

“Allow list” serves the same purpose without and is being widely adopted in the software industry.

Outside of programming, "blocklist" would probably make more sense for most normal uses of the word (blocking people out of credit/rent/employment/etc).

allow is the more descriptive replacement for whitelist, dunno why op switched from blacklist -> blocklist, they serve similar purposes but the inversion of the default is pretty important
