The ability to block a company is great!

I've seen too many cases where a "job posting" on somewhere like dice.com is really a meta-posting by a recruiter that is looking to fill a position in the actual company and collect a royalty (or whatever it's called) for doing it.

I don't want to apply for Recruiters, LLC. I want to apply for RealCompany, Inc.

Another reason why blocking is great is because sometimes you'll find have a bad experience with Scummyco and never want to see anything from them again.

You make it sound like this is the exception, rather than the 80% of the whole recruitment market it represents.
...ah, then I used poor wording.
