If you're in Incognito mode, switch to non-incognito mode. Otherwise, here's what I had to do:

First, navigate to chrome://extensions/

Next, toggle the Twitter Block Chain extension (off, then on).

Then, go back to the following or follwers page.

Finally, click on the Twitter Block Chain icon and select Run Block Chain.

Notes:

Block Chain seems to trigger an error after a few hundred users. When this happens,

First, copy the followers or following URL (you will need this later).

Next, click on the padlock icon next to the url, click on Cookies, and remove the cookies.

Then, refresh the page and log back in to twitter.

Finally, paste to navigate back to the following or follwers URL (you copied earlier), toggle the extension off and on (if needed) and then run Block Chain.
