Xitter for short.
> I would intend that people I had blocked are still able to see the message (and make copies of it) if they wish; I would block them because I don't want to see their messages and I do not want to allow them to send messages to me
I don't. There are different reasons to block and musk only sees the political one. On personal level I may want to have a public account for something but also don't want some person I know to see it and connect the dots that it is me. Maybe just because it's awkward or maybe be more than that
Imagine you are in an abusive relationship or just have a stalker. If you are the victim you want to escape and built relationships with other people. You create an alt with another name and block your abuser in advance so there is no way of finding out whose account it is unless you are betrayed by a friend. But now twitter will betray you. Unless you go private account and then no one talks to you.
