For obvious reasons I suppose - if they fully remove the ability to block and ignore it won't just be a political cesspit, it'll flat-out be nothing but an unfathomable horde of unsolicited dick pics.

So while they can do that on the platform, technically, and release the app for direct download - neither app store will list it.
Just had a quick google and it appears you're spot on, so that's some minor relief at least. I did read that mute has been removed from all the adverts - which is odd, as I don't really see any ads on there anymore. Maybe something to do with my browser extensions.

This block thing is definitely not going to bring back the ad revenue he's lost. Bought it for $44b, now worth $4b. The mans a genius, though.
