I'd also like to mention, that blacklisting is generally considered illegal

The *Hollywood blacklist*=E2=80=94as the broader *entertainment industry bl=
acklist* is
generally known=E2=80=94was the practice of denying employment to screenwri=
ters,
actors, directors, musicians, and other American entertainment
professionals during the mid-20th century because of their suspected
Communist sympathy or membership in the Communist Party.

John Henry Faulk won his lawsuit in 1962. With this court decision, the
private blacklisters and those who used them were put on notice that they
were legally liable <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_liability> for the
professional and financial damage they caused. This helped to bring an end
to publications such as *Counterattack*
