    TikTok users are participating in the popular trend #HurtMyFeelings, where they share embarrassing moments. This trend is centered around the song 'Bulletproof' by La Roux from 2009. Users create videos by sitting in front of their phones and pointing upwards to text that says 'you think you can hurt my feelings? __________________.' In the second line, users reveal their own struggles and challenging moments, accompanied by the lyrics 'this time maybe I'll be bulletproof.' The trend is mostly embraced in a comedic way, with recognizable celebrities, influencers, and digital personalities poking fun at their own experiences or sharing relatable moments of struggle.

    TikTok is taking legal action against the US Administration's attempt to ban the platform in the country. The company believes that the ban is unjustified and poses no national security threat. TikTok has become a popular platform for people of all backgrounds, with millions of Americans using it for entertainment, inspiration, and connection. The platform has also provided opportunities for creators to express their creativity, reach wide audiences, and earn income. TikTok has taken extensive measures to protect user data and has provided documentation to address any concerns raised by the US government. However, the Administration has chosen to ignore these efforts. TikTok plans to sue the government to protect its rights, as well as the rights of its community and employees. The Executive Order issued lacks evidence and violates due process. TikTok believes that the ban is politically motivated and not based on genuine national security concerns. The company would prefer to engage in constructive dialogue, but with the threat of a ban on its US operations, legal action is necessary to protect American jobs and the millions of users who rely on TikTok.
