Key Points:
- Twitter, now known as
- Such revolutions will now allow users to see the replies of blocked people which in the case of the past they would not be able to do as an invisible function.
- The topic of Musk’s leadership on X is highlighted on the communications platform to be akin to a “town square for public discussions”.
A significant change has been seen with X (broadly known as Twitter), which is focusing on changing its blocking mechanisms, taking principles from Elon Musk’s ad-hoc ideas on blocking social platforms.
This means setting up a completely new interesting option that previously did not have visible answers in the context of unblocking. While this change doesn’t go in favor of Musk’s idea of no restrictions at all on the blockchain, it is still a major advancement in the platform’s strategy that calls for reducing restrictions on the blockchain.
On this note, the campaign aligns itself closely with the ‘open space’ approach and public trust. Unlike Musk, who had previously downplayed the blockchain’s contribution to the public domain as illogical, however, this echoes his opinion he had expressed the same opinion.
Modifying means the other way around, the blocked user was able to see the replies given, but the blocking party could not see what the blocked person wrote.

Of course, I should expect a breadth of reactions and some people will be pleased that the veil of secrecy is being lifted, while others will interpret this development as a compromise on an essential security feature.
Thus, the restructuring speaks to Musk’s long-term contribution to X’s growth. Whether you agree or not, their contributions go far beyond hiring and firing or reversing policy and bringing banned users back to the platform. Indeed, while some are arguing that the presence of a “Block” button in the “three-dot icon” means that in the long run, the feature may disappear forever, we’ll have to wait and see if there is enough opposition against the company to reconsider the decision.
We are making changes to how block works.
If a user who has blocked you replies to one of your posts, you will now be able to see their reply. This change enables you to identify and report any potential bad content that you previously could not view, safeguarding both your…
