When someone blocks you on Instagram, you can no longer find their profile, see their posts, or message them. If you search for their username, it will not appear in search results. Your previous likes and comments on each other's posts remain but you cannot view new content or initiate new interactions. Blocking is privacy-oriented, so Instagram does not notify users when they are blocked. This action is aimed at giving users control over their interactions without making block actions public.
