Ah like the master/slave becoming server/client?

I still don’t like allow list though. Block list seems fine. Maybe access list?

Similar to that, yeah, although I think the master/slave thing started earlier. (It's a bit more blatant, tbf.)

I agree that allowlist doesn't roll off the tongue quite as nicely, but as long as it makes it obvious what the word means, I'll go with it.
