What does 'Blacklisting' mean?

Blacklisting, also known as blocklisting, is a software feature that allows users to control and limit access to certain content or websites. This feature is often used in security software, such as firewalls and antivirus programs, to prevent users from accessing malicious or inappropriate websites. With blacklisting, the user or administrator can create a list of specific websites or types of content that are deemed inappropriate or dangerous. When a user attempts to access a blacklisted site, the software will automatically block the connection,
