One starts to wonder, at what point might it be actually feasible to do it the other way around, by whitelisting IP ranges. I could see this happening as a community effort, similar to adblocker list curation etc.

Do some people just mentally insert the word “people” after every occurrence of the words “black” or “white” they happen across in their daily lives?

And then decide whoever used them had malicious intent?
