If a user is bothering you on social media, you can block them, preventing them from messaging you and viewing your posts. However, this will no longer be the case on X. Elon Musk’s social media platform will soon undergo a significant change in the blocking feature.

A person you block on X will still see your posts

Blocked users on X will still be able to see your posts. This development isn’t entirely new, as there have been reports for months suggesting changes to the blocking concept on X. In fact, Elon Musk largely confirmed this change last month when he responded to a user, saying, “The blocking feature will prevent the account from interacting with public posts, but will not prevent them from seeing those posts.”

As Musk’s statement implies, blocking someone on X will soon not be as effective as before. Under the new system, blocked accounts will still be able to view your posts. However, it’s important to note that they still won’t be able to interact with your posts or send you messages, just as in the past.

X has started notifying users about this important feature change in recent days. While no specific date has been provided, notifications suggest that the blocking function will be altered soon.

This development has received negative feedback from many users. A large group believes that the new change will make the blocking feature meaningless, while others argue that since blocked users still can’t message or interact, it won’t cause significant issues.
