The T-Series vs PewDiePie, the epic battle that has taken the YouTube by storm. Yes, even I, am talking about it. Interestingly, it’s becoming a global issue from hackers hacking printers worldwide to urge people to subscribe to PewDiePie’s channel to fans buying billboards to support him. The extent of its reach is unbelievable. The Indian Youtubers have taken it personally and have now started to spread the word about T-series.
