      Problem

      The use of racially charged terms like "whitelist" and "blacklist" connotate goodness and badness to specific colors, which can be exclusionary and offensive.

      Solution

      Use non-exclusionary terms instead.

      Notes

      The change has been made in our documentation but not in-product. For example, Configuring the allowlist.
