Elon Musk’s X has changed its block feature, allowing blocked users to view public posts. Previously, blocked users couldn’t see profiles or followers.
When a user is blocked by a person, at present, X displays a “You’re blocked” message when they attempt to view the latter’s profile. Blocked users cannot even see the account’s followers, replies, or following list but now X is altering this because users can already see posts from individuals who have blocked them by using another account or when logged out.

Elon Musk earlier said that the block feature “makes no sense” and suggested the platform needs a stronger form of mute.
This comes as X announced that only premium subscribers would have the ability to livestream on the platform, as confirmed by the official (a)Live profile on X. This year, Twitter transitioned to the X domain in June.
