If Brian Krebs was using a mastodon server instance, you have never been blocked from following him.

  He is, and I was. You cannot follow people who are on a server that has blocked your server. Your follow request will be ignored, and his new toots will not be delivered to your server. If you were already following him, this follow relationship is deleted on his end, his server will deliver an unfollow notification, and then will not deliver his new toots to your server. You can still view his profile on his server using a web browser, which is not the same as following him.

    Unless they are using a fork with an rss feed reader you can still follow him.

      ????????? I'm talking about Mastodon. Yes, I could also just go to his profile page on a web browser. I could also turn my screen off and go outside. I could also ask someone else what he said. Or read his blog. You're obviously missing the point.
