Blocking not only allows you to totally hide someone’s account and information from yours, but it also stops that person from viewing or engaging with your account in the future. Everyone has their own reasons for wanting to block someone, but it’s essentially a last-resort, ultimate action to let someone know that they don’t have the right to be a presence in your online life and that they are negatively impacting you.
Most of the time, blocking is necessary and done for the sake of safety, security, and a more positive mental state. Exes’ accounts (especially toxic ones), companies or people who push information that can trigger you, or accounts that propagate hate messages are all examples. Blocking people you know who have harmed you in some way, such as bullying, toxic friendships, or persistent harassment and contact, might also help you feel better.
