  Hi there,

  If a site is public, anyone can access it. There is no way to block a specific person from accessing or following a public WordPress.com site. The only way to control who can access your site is to set it to private, and then invite just the people who you want to be able to see it.

  Even if we had a way to block a specific WordPress.com account from following your site in the Reader, that person would still be able to follow your site’s public RSS feed in another feed reader, or create a random webmail address and use that to subscribe to your site.
