Add * to the name of the storage devices before you place the console and it won't be a problem. In all honestly, i'm pretty sure, more people want it all unchecked by default. (You can check all in the console after it's placed, but a simple * in the name of the storage fixes the problem until you want to pull from it, (then just remove the * in the name))

Yeah a blacklist is essentially useless playing in a base with multiple people, we really need a WHITE list tbh

+1 , was searching around in hopes of maybe finding a setting for all structures to be excluded by default. Sure you can just put a * on a structures name, and I understand the mod fully now after using it for months. But the issue rests with accessibility and ease of use for people new to the mod and learning.
The server I play on, the vast majority who try using the AA control console are immediately met with frustration when they end up accidentally having their entire pre-built base worth of inventory suddenly getting all sucked up and disorganized and they never want to even look at it again.
Sure you can say "Just look up the information on steam before doing anything at all and spend probably half an hour just reading everything you would need to know before making a mistake or even building a base in the first place." but we all know not everyone is nearly that competent.
Making everything excluded by default would make the mod drastically more approachable to people trying it out for the first time.
I sing this mod's praises about how I never touch my inventory system anymore when combined with S+ or SS resource pulling system to craft and organize with ease, but then they all tell me they had their whole base disorganized instantly and never bothered to even look at it again.
Regardless of how you feel that it wouldn't work for your large tribes and shouldn't be in because most people would prefer having nothing excluded by default, just a yes or no automatic exclusion setting for people to choose from would be a massive improvement on its own.

yeah i felt the same an use it all the time, there is another issue when you have this on a raft a pull up next to some one else, i always stop short of there base/raft now
