### Why do I get warnings about SSL certificates?
##### Blocked
-Direct communication will be blocked. Blocked contacts are not included in delivery, and their own posts to you are not imported. However their conversations with your friends will still be visible in your stream. If you remove a contact completely, they can send you another friend request. Blocked contacts cannot do this. They cannot communicate with you directly, only through friends.

-##### Archieved
+##### Archived
-Communication is not possible and will not be attempted. However unlike blocking, existing posts this person made before being archived will be visible in your stream.
