The only way to protect yourself from trolls and stalkers on X. (htxt.co.za)

A notice from X (formerly Twitter) stating: 'Block is changing soon. If your posts are set to public, accounts you have blocked will be able to view them, but they will not be able to engage. For more control over who can see your posts, you can still protect your account.' There is an 'OK' button at the bottom of the notice.

X is telling users that blocking will soon be useless and trolls and stalkers will soon be able to see their posts again.

Instead of blocking, X advises that users take their account private, the antithesis to what X and its progenitor Twitter was about.

This removal of blocking may violate Apple and Google’s policies regarding platforms that host user generated content.
