- falcolas 6y agoContact the police so they can arrest the poster? Also, maintain a public denylist of packages with an transparent process for overriding or correcting the list?
- hotz 6y agoIs a denylist a blacklist? Denylist as a word doesn't really roll off the tongue.
- canucker2016 6y agoYes. A news search points to last July when many social media/tech orgs decided to switch from whitelist/blacklist to allowlist/denylist. see https://grahamcluley.com/blacklist-whitelist-terminology/ https://grahamcluley.com/blacklist-whitelist-terminology/ I would've gone with yeslist/nolist - due to being shorter in writing and speech.
- Dma54rhs 6y agoWhy go with anything other than blacklist since people know what it means. It's the peak irony that we're discussing Google banning profanities here and arguing about your puritanical society. Unfortunately it seems the less religious Americans think it's only the dumb hypocrite Christians acting like that. We, Silicon Valley liberals, surely don't have anything to do with that culture!
- wizzwizz4 6y agoAnd blacklist doesn't actually mean anything without the context of an archaic idiom; it was a large barrier for me when I was younger, until I eventually learnt what the word means. You can go with “blocklist”, if you'd rather; that's similarly meaningful and sounds similar.
- jowsie 6y agoWe could just go back to killfile
- falcolas 6y agoIt rolls off the tongue better than blacklist, since a hard consonant in the middle of the word is slightly harder to enunciate than one starting the word. But, should you instead mean "I don't like it so I'll ridicule it," well, I can't please everybody. Sorry.
- stretchcat 6y agoYou mean like what happens on the web, the system you're using presently?
- ForHackernews 6y agoReport it to the FBI so the developers of the app get sent to prison, where they belong. Are you in the habit of reporting serious crimes to the nearest advertising agency?
- vmception 6y agoInvestigate the people that created or are the primary distributors of the childporn because they are trackable on clearnet, and let everyone else make their own choice of not installing or stop being able to access when the servers disappear? Can you explain why thats not the first thing that came to mind? Why are our realities so different?
