How to unblock a user on Facebook

Facebook has become an integral part of everyone’s lives due to the phenomenon called social networking. One can argue that the biggest thing to happen to social media and social  networking is Facebook, and they would be right. Whats more is that the company has cemented its feet into the social scene further after the recent acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp, making it also one of the most rounded out platforms on the internet and a content creator’s paradise.

Facebook was created to give people a safe haven to express their thoughts and ideas. There are some people however, who befriend you and then indulge in some not so positive activities. This is called harassment and the fist step to stopping this trouble is to block the contact responsible.

Over time, if you feel that the user you had previously blocked has turned over a new leaf, Facebook gives you the power to unblock the contact and allows communication between you again.

In this tutorial, we will show you how to unblock a user on Facebook.
