I think the title is click bait. They will of course not outlaw blocking in general. Instead the case is about the legality of social media blocking by individuals who are also government officials. Personally I think this can be solved in a way that both takes care of the duty of the office, while also protecting the rights of individual officials. It should remain a right for individuals to block people from their private accounts. Meanwhile, the right to block should be limited on official accounts that act on behalf of the office they represent. By limited I mean that they should of course be allowed to block obvious bots or spam. The end result will be a new job opening for most public offices, which is that of the public relations officer in charge of public social media accounts.
