We cannot live without content. It’s true! We have been consuming it for years, even if you think the internet hasn’t been there long. Content has been there in the form of plays, books, puppet shows, movies. It’s just that over time, our patience became even more limited. The birth of this impatience led to TikTok, a social media platform delivering bite-sized video content.

With so much hate, so much love and an insanely large user base — TikTok took the social media world by storm, but unfortunately, its reign ended recently. It wasn’t the cringe content that led to its burnout. It was the consequences of being a Chinese company with certain apprehensions about National Security from the government of India, losing its largest viewership of Indians who made hilarious crying TikToks about _kandha _(onion) prices.

Now, even though Gen Z is unhappy with this huge move and showcased their unhappiness on PM Modi’s Instagram posts, TikTok has not yet been revived in India. Seeing this ballsy move, Trump has also announced the move to ban the platform.
