I am certain I am not the only one far away from colonial history. I am also certain there are black developers who are unaffected by these terms. These 2 certainties make me view this renaming idea as very much centered around current American politics and climate and therefore dumb.
Technology should not revolve around one single culture but forge its own culture and internal references.

Germany has a lot of things censored as well due to its past. What is the outcome of this censorship? We have neo-nazis encroaching, meeting in secret and gaining in numbers (especially young uneducated people) because they sell themselves as being ‘cool’ and the ‘rebels’ fighting an unjust system.
Tell a human not to do something and that something becomes irresistible.
