Someone being blocked doesn't mean harassment occurred. That will sometimes be the case and sometimes not, depending on the blocker.

Does it matter? It's freedom of association. Ignore enough of the people you presumably represent, and that gets shown through elections.

As for unelected officials, anything that would affect government duties should be going through official channels.

I mean until the moment you're a minority which is something elected officials have continually had issues with, especially in the south, here in the US.

If an elected official is using a private channel as a means of 'public' information dissemination things get messy.

That sounds more like an problem of issuing public information only through private channels.

This is a right of the people, not of the government.
