One of the most powerful tools on social media is the "block" feature. It allows a social media user to silence the haters and drown out the critics, while curating a more friendly social media feed.

Garnier, public officials across the country may have just lost their most powerful social media tool—and litigation is surely to follow.

Warnings about pregnancy criminalization have rightfully escalated in the wake of Dobbs v.
