Curious: is it possible to block a single reader from viewing your posts?

Not trying to DO anything…just would like to know for future reference :-)
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello @timeadeinhardt,
There not way to block a specific user/reader but what you can do is make your blog private and then, invite and allow only specific users to view your blog.Read more about it here:

Hi there,
Currently it’s not possible, no. The only way to effectively block someone is by blocking their IP address, which is a blunt tool at best which will end up blocking more people than just the person you want to block, and easy to get around using a proxy or a VPN.
What you can do is to block someone from commenting on your site. That way they’ll be able to read your posts, but won’t be able to interact with you or other readers on your site.

The only way to block someone from seeing your site at all is setting it to private, as @optidusprime said.
