Funny that.

Isn't it the case that all the forms involve it being breathed into the lungs but the 'bad' asbestos is particular sharp/strong compared to white so causes scarring and just gets stuck there forever more? So even if the white is less/not dangerous it's still probably not great to breath in something that'll be on the walls of your lungs forever.
I know white asbestos is not banned in some countries though.
