He just disagrees if using tailwind is a good idea.

Where is the problem that justifies blocking?

> Where is the problem that justifies blocking?

You can block anyone on social media for any reason or no reason at all and you don’t have to justify it to anyone.

[croes]

You can, but should you? Doesn't that look unprofessional?

[chrisseaton]

If they've decided to block someone, they've probably already decided that they don't care about looking professional to that person.

[wizzwizz4]

An individual, absolutely. But a company? The arguments in favour of “you can block anyone for any reason” don't really apply.

[chrisseaton]

Sure, as long as it's not based on a protected characteristic or an interaction subject to a regulation. You have no right to interact with a company otherwise.

[wizzwizz4]

I'm not talking about legal rights; I'm talking about what is a sensible social convention. (Because really, you don't have the right to block anyone.)

[chrisseaton]

You don't need a right to do it, because they have no right for it to not be done.

But social convention was my point - the social convention is it's always fine to block and you never need to explain, in my opinion.
