Ah, the modern code review experience. You're just trying to implement a simple country access control function, and suddenly your IDE is giving you a moral lecture about your variable naming.
The function is perfectly fine—it's checking if a country is in an allowed list—but apparently "whitelist" is now problematic terminology. Meanwhile, that null comparison using triple equals is the actual crime here, but the IDE is too busy being the language police to catch it.
Next week: your compiler will refuse to run your code unless you've used gender-neutral variable names and commented with appropriate trigger warnings.
