I refuse to use “whitelist”/“blacklist” or “master”/“slave” terminology for computers. Join me. Words matter.

To all that say this is a lot of unnecessary work: It took about one hour for python developers to remove all occurrences of "master/slave" from the standard library since the issue was raised (keeping a few like 'master branch', 'webmaster',...). https://bugs.python.org/issue34605
I just removed "blacklist" from the Apache web server documentation. It took me a little less than 10 minutes.
