For years I bit my lip instead of asking "family of?" :)
but don't think there is a racial connotation to black/white list. White lists being preferred may be where the issue arrises I'm guessing. Switching would be fine with me.
These small implications do add up to a group of people feeling the negative practical effects, so I think we should work on not being an even very small part of the problem.
I already say active interception or session hijacking and think that's a fine replacement for man-in-the-middle. I didn't see an issue with man-in-the-middle.
It's similar to "manned spaceflight". NASA's guidelines have been for a very long time to use "crewed flight". If that helps a single girl to not deem becoming an astronaut[1] as impossible, that's a win. Although it is also a little different here because I hope no girls aspire to become a man-in-the-middle :) I think monkey/machine in-the-middle works and it allows us to keep using the MITM acronym. And "session hijacking" to me could be done without being in the path, so I wouldn't equate the two terms. Paul
