[imp] a change on the lists terms

[toya]

i agree with joseph,
it is importante to listen and respect the point of view of the people. and just to mentione what i am talking isnt just in brasil but also in the united states..maybe ppl never faced such discussion before..but it does exist and not only in both countries but others as well and in other languagues as well.
I would sugest blocklist not blacklist and freelist not whitelist..
as joseph said it is easy to change.
ciao
