So… Wait.

This means someone can just @ someone else and destroy their feed with hate or dick pics or whatever?!

Mr. “assassination coordinates” said he was going to live stream driving to Zucks house to fight him, which would effectively doxx Zuck. Expecting logical consistency is silly.

Sounds like people should start setting up nasty ass porn bots and have them spam Musk constantly

What I suspect will happen is that Musk cronies will be free to harass anyone they want, but anyone harassing Musk or one of this cronies will be banned.

Yep, I think so. And “someone else” includes Elon.

Blue checks will complain about it, then want a feature to get around that.

Complain about mute? How will they know they have been muted?

what’s the difference between block and mute? Block just lets them not see your feed and notifies them of this, but mute just hides anything they post from you?

Muting people that harass you instead of blocking them enable them to just spam libel about you onto your posts, which can have other effects. At least with blocking, they can’t just do it on your actual posts.

If you mute someone, you don’t see their posts. They don’t get any notification that you have muted them. It’s the same as blocking but they don’t know they are blocked.

Blocking is a step up from muting. Muting just makes it so you don’t see the muted users’ posts and comments. Blocking makes it so that the blocked user is muted, plus they cannot see any of your posts and comments. Blocked users also cannot @ you.
