Final answer:

The use of a whitelist or blacklist in case of a conflict depends on the specific implementation of the system or software.

Step-by-step explanation:

In case of a conflict between a whitelist and a blacklist input setting, the one that is used depends on the specific implementation of the system or software. Some systems may prioritize the whitelist and only allow input from sources on the list, while others may prioritize the blacklist and block input from sources on the list. In some cases, both lists may be used, with the whitelist overriding the blacklist or vice versa.
