Ability to block incoming follows during Shield Mode
I would like to see the ability to disable the follow button awhile Shield Mode is active on a channel. For example, if a hate raid is occurring through follows, these may trigger alerts through third-party systems outside of Shield Mode's control.
The ability to temporarily disable the ability to follow a channel during an attack mitigates this impact significantly.

The only reason so far I've ever wanted shield mode is for being spam followed by bots, but it's the one setting shield mode doesn't have! Over 15 months since your idea and twitch hasn't implemented this...they don't read uservoice at all do they?

This happened to a streamer which I mod for the day before shield mode was implemented. Hate raiders were creating new accounts with hateful usernames and mass following the stream with them.
Disabling the follow button during shield mode would stop this type of attack.
