Entries in the blacklist take precedence over entries in the whitelist, so addresses listed in
both places will not be able to connect.
Using `w` with an empty or missing `.yesunbeam` file is nearly equivalent to using `p`, with the
difference being that `p` causes the socket to bind to `127.0.0.1` instead of the public address,
while `w` keeps the binding public but checks all incoming connections against a hash table of
allowed addresses and drops them if they are not found. `p` is likely a little bit faster, but
only `w` will print a notification to the console whenever a connection is rejected.

If a port is suffixed with both `w` and `p`, whichever is listed last will take precedence.
