For a while now, Twitter has been a medium to connect star celebrities with fans and followers. Tollywood stars have been using Twitter to get in touch with fans. But there’s a catch here too as celebrities tend to face fire from a section who don’t like their work and then go on abuse them on the platform.
Incidentally, Ram Charan had exited Twitter for many years in the past in order to ward off the hate on social media.
This is why the blocking feature is extensively used by these celebrities to keep their haters and abusive folk at bay, at least to some degree.
However, cut to now, Twitter is set to remove the blocking feature on the platform. The same is officially confirmed already.
Once this blocking feature is gone, there’s no stopping this section of haters who are practically given the ticket to abuse these celebrities as they wish.
All the while, vocal and active users(celebs) used to block people who are abusive. The likes of Harish Shankar and Thaman who are very active used this feature to keep the negative energy at bay on Twitter.
For those who have agencies handling their Twitter handles, this new move to remove blocking is alright as they don’t get to directly face the hate from this section of users. But for celebs who personally use their handles, this will open the floodgates.
In that case, there’s a chance many celebs might leave Twitter in order to avoid facing hate from this anti group.
