Block someone or mute a post on Google+

You can choose who can connect with you on Google+ and who can see your posts. 

Block someone

If you don't want someone to be able connect with you on Google+, you can block them. When you block someone in Google+:

• They won't be able to see anything you post after you block them, or comments you leave on other people's posts.
• They won't be able to mention you in posts or comments on Google+, or comment on anything you've posted on Google+. 
• You’ll be removed from each other's circles. They also won't be able to add you to circles.
• If the person you block is an owner or moderator of a Community you belong to, they can still see and moderate your comments and posts.
• When you block someone in Google+, the person will also be blocked in certain other Google services, such as Google Hangouts. Google+ blocks that affect Hangouts can also affect Google Voice.
• You can see people you've blocked and unblock them using your Activity Log.

Important: Blocking only works if the person you've blocked is signed in to their Google Account. For example, if the person you've blocked is signed in, they won't be able to see your public posts. But if they aren't signed in, they may be able to see public posts.
