Hello,

Lets say person A blocks person B. Person C tags person B in a photo. Person A follows person C, so will person A be able to see person be in the picture?

System Configuration: iPhone / Safari 13.1.1

Hi,

Person A can see Person B because they are the blocker. They can still search for Person B account and view their posts. On the other hand, Person B can't see Person A account, their posts, nor find it from the search as it is blocked.
Even if person B has a private account and Person C posted the photo?

As the account is private, Person A will not be able to see their profile and posts if they visit it. (A message will appear saying that the account is private and they must follow them).
Answer is yes.
