Difference is that in Ignorance Is Bliss character doesn't know intentionaly, but if someone told him he would be horrified. He also doesn't actively seek truth.
In You Do NOT Want to Know is when someone wants to know but others tell him he doesn't want to know. In effect,nhe wants to know truth but other tell him that Ignorance Is Bliss.
