None. But then again I rarely look at Facebook and I haven’t the slightest idea how to block someone. ---

Zero for me. I don’t block, I just ignore. ---

None. But then I only have immediate family as friends and keep everything on the highest privacy settings. Being in HR, I know all too well how people have shot themselves in the foot career-wise over some foolishness on Facebook. I wouldn’t be on at all if my millenial children didn’t demand it of me. ---

Just two. The same two I had blocked on MySpace. ---

I don’t block people I know, but I’ve unfollowed a couple. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-many-people-are-on-your-blocked-list-on-facebook/721634.md?page=2)
