They’ve basically turned “block” into “ignore”.
I think Twitter should learn from Facebook’s privacy mistakes. Controls should be fine-grained and the meaning behind them should change as little as possible.
So blocked does not mean invisible. Oh, I see. No wait, I don’t see because I can’t. I’m blocked. No, oh what the hell ever.
