Pinterest today announced new tools for blocking and reporting other users on the social curation site.

Wrote Pinterest software engineer Danny Chu in a blog post:

Pinterest is all about you and what inspires you. That’s why it’s important that you have control of your Pinterest experience. We’ve always offered basic features to control things like the emails you receive, social networking sites you connect your account with, and the ability to report pins. Today, we’re adding a couple of new features people have requested to give you more control, including the ability to block and report a user and more granular email settings.
