TikTok’s rating drops after Internet war erupts between influencers of short video platform and YouTube

BENGALURU: Short video platform TikTok has seen its rating drop to two stars from 4.6 stars in the last one week on Google app store after an Internet war erupted between a YouTube influencer and TikTok creator in India.

It all started when TikTok creator Amir Siddiqui posted a video on Instagram calling out YouTubers. In his video, Amir Siddiqui accused YouTubers of plagiarizing TikTok content and losing out on brand endorsements. Popular roaster Ajey Nagar, known as CarryMinati, lashed out against Amir Siddiqui’s video on YouTube, which was later taken down for violating the platform’s terms of service. The video that registered millions of views was expletive-laden.
