Twitter rebranded as X modifies blocking feature for transparency, users see public posts but cannot interact.
Twitter, rebranded as X, is altering its blocking feature to enhance transparency. Users will still see public posts from blocked accounts but cannot interact with them.

The full impact of this update, introduced under Elon Musk's ownership, remains uncertain.
