When someone blocks you on most social media platforms, you won't be able to find their profile, see their posts, or contact them through direct messages. On some platforms, if you try to visit the profile of an account that blocked you by clicking on a direct link, it might appear as if the account doesn't exist or you'll see a message indicating you can't view the profile. Each platform has subtle differences, but the inability to interact with the account is a common theme.
