Twitter is giving its users more “sophisticated” tools to fight against the haters who are gonna hate. </p><p>
On Wednesday the San Francisco-based company introduced a new way to block several accounts at once, instead of one by one, by using block lists. By sharing your list of blocked accounts and importing other Twitter users’ block lists, it will be easier to find and block “unwanted interactions” all at once.</p><figure class="large ">(http://images.techhive.com/images/article/2015/06/export_screenshot_1-100590357-large.jpg) <small class="credit">Twitter</small></figure>

“You can now export and share your block lists with people in your community facing similar issues or import another user’s list into your own account and block multiple accounts all at once, instead of blocking them individually,” read a post on Twitter’s blog (https://blog.twitter.com/2015/sharing-block-lists-to-help-make-twitter-safer) announcing the new feature. Twitter hopes that by helping users export and import block lists, people experiencing harassment on Twitter will be able to deal with it more efficiently and not abandon the platform altogether.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2933346/twitter-now-lets-you-share-your-block-list-to-get-rid-of-multiple-trolls-at-once.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
