Human or technological interventions between the sender and the receiver can block or distort messages.

It is true that both human and technological interventions can result in blocking or distorting messages between the sender and receiver. For example, if someone is speaking on the phone and the connection is bad, some words may be lost or distorted, making it difficult for the other person to understand the message being conveyed. Similarly, if someone is sending an email and the internet connection is unstable, the message may not be delivered or may be received in a distorted format. Human errors, such as misinterpretation or even intentional distortion of information, can also contribute to communication breakdowns.
