YouTube creators are moving against TikTok creators which also fought back. However, the situation has quickly escalated after the video published by Carry Minati. The video became viral in India breaking several records during its first week. The video got a massive amount of likes and dislikes. After amassing over 74 million views in 7 days, YouTube deleted the video. The streaming platform made its decision after many complaints from TikTok users. According to YouTube, the video went against the privacy policy and was also violating the terms & conditions imposed by the platform. As a result, Carry Minatiā€™s followers are promptly responding with a wave of 1-star reviews on the TikTok App in the Play Store.
