Block Party, a social media safety tool, has been acquired by DeleteMe, a data removal service. Founder Tracy Chou, a software engineer advocating for diversity in tech, started Block Party in 2018 to combat harassment on platforms like Twitter. After raising $4.8 million in seed funding in 2022, Block Party expanded beyond Twitter, offering a browser extension that works with over a dozen sites. The acquisition unites data removal services with cleaning features, providing a comprehensive solution for users and businesses. Existing Block Party customers will not experience disruptions, with more details on the full integration to be announced soon.
