These changes have sparked a lot of conversation among users about privacy, AI learning, and how the blocking feature will function.
If you’re an active user, it’s important to stay informed about these updates to manage your data and privacy effectively. One of the latest concerns is the use of users’ posts and interactions for training X’s AI tool, Grok. By default, your posts, interactions, and even search results can be used to fine-tune this AI system.
However, if you are uncomfortable with your data being used for AI learning, X has provided an option to opt out. Go to Settings → Privacy and Safety → Data Sharing → Grok to turn it off. https://t.

However, X announced that soon, blocked accounts will still be able to see your public posts —they just won’t be able to engage with them (like, comment, or retweet). This change is raising eyebrows among users. Many are questioning the point of the block feature if blocked accounts can still view their content.
If your posts are public, accounts you’ve blocked will still have access to them unless you adjust your privacy settings. If you want to maintain control over who sees your posts, X recommends switching your posts to private or using the “protect” option. Here’s how: While these updates are intended to improve user experience, the changes may not sit well with everyone.
Many users have expressed concern about their posts being used to train AI for free or blocked accounts being able to view their content. kan!! 🤝🏻 tujuan kita Block ialah kita tak nak dia tahu pasal kita & kita tak nak tahu pasal dia!! Trick dia nak bagi kita private account, so sapa yg follow je boleh tengok. Maksudnya, followers makin ramaii For now, it’s best to review your settings to make sure you’re comfortable with the amount of access and data-sharing involved.
