Episode: Elon Musk's Worst Idea Ever? Removing the "Block" Button from Twitter
Description: In a post on X, Musk announced, “Block is going to be deleted as a ‘feature’, except for DMs,” adding that the block feature "makes no sense." Previously, the platform described blocking as a way for users to control their interactions, especially in cases of harassment or threats. Instead, Musk has now advocated for using the mute feature, a less restrictive option that simply hides posts without unfollowing or blocking an account.
