X owner Elon Musk says the service formerly known as Twitter is getting rid of the option to block other users, except for when it comes to DMs.
to remove the feature, suggested it"makes no sense" to block other users instead of muting them. The mute option will still be available.
Many people use the block feature to protect themselves from harassment. It's long been a key safety feature of the platform and nixing it opens the door to users perhaps seeing more hateful content they don't want to deal with in their feeds and notifications. Moreover, as points out, some users block advertisers and brands they don't want to see, which could have a notable impact on X's bottom line.
