Block other users on Twitter - how it works
If you harass other users on the Twitter short message platform, you can block or report them. We'll show you how to do this.
Twitter: Block certain users
If you block a user, they can no longer follow you or mention you. In addition, the blocked person can no longer mark you on a photo, add them to a list or present your profile photo on their timeline.
- To do this, log in to Twitter and open the relevant Twitter account.
- To the left of the "Follow" button you will find a gear symbol that you have to click on.
- Then press "Block or Report" in the drop-down menu.
- In the following window you only have to enter a reason why you want to block the account. Put the radio button next to the reason that fits best. Then you only have to confirm with "Block".
