There are times when the only option left is to block someone’s Facebook profile to avoid them. Blocking is a feasible way to get rid of people who are constantly bothering or harassing you. It is different from unfriending a person or restricting someone on Facebook.
When you block someone on Facebook, they will no longer be able to see your posts, tag you, add you as a friend, start a conversation with you, or invite you to events or groups.
If you’re friends with someone, blocking them will also unfriend them from your profile. Facebook doesn’t notify the person when you block them. If you want to unblock a person, you’ll have to send them a friend request again.
