The recent updates to X's block feature have raised concerns, particularly about its potential negative impact on user privacy and safety. Previously, blocking someone on X would prevent them from seeing your posts, but with the new changes, users you've blocked will still be able to view your public posts, though they won’t be able to interact with them (like, reply, or repost). This adjustment is seen as controversial, especially for those who use blocking to avoid harassment or unwanted interactions. Some argue that this makes blocking less effective, while others believe it could increase transparency.
If you're concerned about this change and its implications, it may be useful to explore other privacy settings or platforms that offer stronger user control.
