Blacklisting and Whitelisting

The black-and-white list functions provide the DAO, or other trusted projects, a mechanism to blacklist or whitelist certain accounts. For example, certain accounts may not have a way to prove they are legitimate other than being whitelisted. On the flip side we can use the blacklist to block all known Sybil accounts providing a strong deterrent for this type of behavior.
