(Bottom posting because I can) One thing I’m now noticing is that there is no longer consistency. Previous it was blacklist/whitelist and now we have… Welcomelist/blocklist Yeslist/nolist Allowlist/denylist Permitlist/rejectlist And looking through the list of URLs that Paul Stead shared, it goes even further. There’s no consistency, and I can’t imagine that will go without its own set of issues in the future. I also (playfully) note the irony of this while I am sitting on land in the great Choctaw Nation - the very icon of this project can be considered by some to be appropriation of Native American culture. ;-) Cheers! — jn
