I have scoured many a Google result looking for this answer, and now turn here because I cannot find it anywhere else. I’ve never posted here, so please forgive me if I sound elementary asking a question about Facebook.

Just recently, I was looking through a friend’s profile and noticed that someone was posting and their name is not linked. As in, I cannot click on their name and go to their profile… It’s not a matter of private or shared, you just can’t even click on their name. I do not know the person, just thought it was interesting that I cannot go to their profile.

Is this something that I can turn on? Is it something that you turn on so that only certain people cannot see or is that what happens when you block someone? What is this?
