        "I don't want to see content from this person", legit
"I don't want to get notifications about this person's content", legit
"I don't want this person's content to be able to link to my profile or use my name", dubious
"I want this person to have to log out to see my content", nonsense

How so? Even if I think people are posting the stupidest, most self-incriminating bullshit ever, I don't have any special right to see their content or forward to my audience if they don't want me to.

It still makes no sense that I can just log out take a screenshot log back in and share it. That's the part that's just a bit weird. It makes sense on s platform where not everything is publicly accessible
