    A while back he (Musk) posted that individual blocklists are relatively expensive (cpu wise) to run, which is true. This has been getting much worse with the whole blue check debacle. People are blocking those idiots en masse. I’m fairly sure this is just a cost saving measure.

      This is probably why. If douchebags pay to self identify, you can’t have them blocked by 1/3 of your users or they aren’t getting their value.
