Blocking

When a user blocks either another user or a server that should guarantee that the blocked user, or all users from a blocked instance, can no longer see nor interact with the person doing the blocking. Bots can still actively scrape (and they do) accounts that have them blocked. People who harass have a tiny barrier to cross to continue their behaviour. There is a reason that people would want to block, most of which are nullified if that block does nothing more than sets up a small irritation
