Moving away from the words ‘blacklist’ and ‘whitelist’ #1289

Closed adam-sajko closed 1 year ago

This topic is :fire:HOT:fire: lately and many large companies like Google moving away from these words to be more inclusive.

This PR marks the 'blacklist' and 'whitelist' properties as deprecated until the next major update. That shouldn't broke anything and should satisfy both sides.

I'd recommend denylist instead of blocklist, I've seen denylist used in many places around but haven't seen blocklist yet. Just to make it closer to the trend.

@ckalika Any update on updating terminology? I think there are a few open PRs regarding this.

I think this is not a priority. There are some other critical issues that need to be addressed first.

Do social issues really need to nag us in ever aspect of our lives? It's basically a full time job to not offend anyone. No thanks. That's no way to live.
