How to find out who has blocked you on twitter

A few weeks back someone posted a link to how you can find out who blocks you on twitter. I've lost the link, can anyone tell me what it was?

Thanks

There is an account that tells you what block lists, I've forgotten the name but I understand it's run by a notorious Trans activist so I do wonder at the motives

Yes I used it weeks ago and found I was only blocked by 2 random people (not terfblocker!) but as I couldn't see tweets linked to today it looks like that might have gone up!

If it’s asking you to put your email or handle in, can it harvest that information?

Here's a blog that will tell you how to figure out what lists you are on

I've looked on that and found I'm on a list by someone called olfactory_hues - but there's 150k+ on the list so I'm trying not to be offended Smile

you can tweet that safely, but you shouldn't click on the resulting link using your home internet connection. They WILL try to use it dox people.

There are various proxy services that you can use to view the resulting page.

Why is it so hard to find out? Anyone know?
I'm blocked by a number of accounts now, and really would like to see who. I kinda know why, even though I'm a pretty average woman who rarely tweets anything.

Doedoe - shit. Too late. What can I do?

Oops! I did click on the link. It went to amazon cloud, I think. Haven't really tweeted much and nothing I couldn't stand up to so hopefully all is well.

you can't do anything and it probably doesn't matter unless you're on their radar, it just depends if they want to dox you then they might be able to get your place of work etc from your ip address (if you used your work internet for example)
