You have to give them your log in credentials. Some lefty could have made this to gain credentials for conservative accts and scrape their direct messages
That doesn't make them any better. Of course blockbots require passwords to work. That's not unique.

I would say use this only if you would be okay with your private messages being in the hands of people who hate you and want to hurt you.
I could code a bot like this in a single weekend that blocked Fox, OANN etc and target leftists for their private info. But I am not going to do that. Just saying this part to prove a point.
You go the blocknyt.com and click a link. It takes you to a page asking permission to basically have full control of your Twitter account. I assume they could have just configured their app to only have permission to block accounts. So I also assume this is a scam to get control of a bunch of twitter accounts to do their bidding.
Let's Block CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, MSNBC, PBS, WAPO, and so on...
I mean it is block history month after all.
biden,harris,pelosi. this is a game i can have lots of fun with.
Block WAPO is definitely needed.

Can anybody confirm that theory?

Where do I block them at? I don’t visit their site. Is there somewhere else?

Oh I don’t have a Twitter...

Now we need to start blocking Twitter, Facebook, and all the talking heads.
Why not just block Twitter?
Exactly
