I have a friend that works at Salesforce, he told me that they made him change the name of some classes that used the term Blacklist because of inclusivity

This kind of thing is infuriating. Especially when the actual etymology of "blacklist" is a 17th century play where a list of nobles scheming against the British monarchy is described as a blacklist.
