When should I block someone? #
You may choose to block a user if:
-
They are sending you unwanted messages
-
They are interacting with your posts in ways that feel harassing or invasive
-
You no longer wish to see their content
-
You need space from a specific person or group
Blocking someone is a private action — the other person will not be notified.
What happens when I block a user? #
Once blocked:
-
They will no longer be able to view your profile
-
They cannot message you
-
They will not see your posts or updates
-
You will not see their content in your feeds
-
You will automatically unfollow each other (if you were connected)
Blocking is reversible. You can unblock someone from your account settings at any time.
How to block a user #
-
Go to the profile of the person you want to block.
-
Click the three-dot menu (•••) in the top corner of their profile.
-
Select “Block user”.
-
Confirm your decision when prompted.
If the person continues to create new accounts to contact you, report them.
