I've rolled my last Rick

because that one cannot be topped. I'm not even going to point out or link to which one I'm talking about. I have no more work to do in that area. As SD predicts, I'm sure I'll get up to some new form of childish tomfoolery, but the rickroll itch has been scratched in me.

begging won't help.....I will rick roll no more forever.

Except for that "shirts" link, you mean?

This makes me very sad. :sniff:

I must confess, I've never actually clicked the "shirts" link. I'm sure it's a legitimate site.

It was rude of me to question any of lumberjim's links. In fact, I'm going to click that link now.

edit: I clicked the "shirts" link. It was not a rickroll. Really. I might even buy one of those shirts.

You just got GOATSE'd!

I dont click on anybodies links...I have been ruined!!!

i won't be there in the morning when people notice it. i told no one about my plan.

did it after everyone was gone tonight......

i don't even know if anyone will 'get it'

I lolled though

:notworthy

I know no one here would ever get the rick roll.

That's hilarious!

I got here at 1, and the sign was turned off, and I've heard nothing about it.

Maybe they're plotting. Or, maybe as you said, they just didn't get it. :(

The world has rolled its last rick.

Youtube removes original "Rick Roll" video

On the same page as UT's link, a link to this story.

The BBC News is reporting that an Italian court has convicted three Google executives over footage showing a teenager with Down's Syndrome being bullied, which was posted to YouTube.

The Three Google executives were convicted of violating privacy laws over the footage. The execs were David Drummond, Senior Vice President, George De Los Reyes, ex financial executive and privacy Chief Peter Fleischer. The case is the first time a web company has been held criminally liable for user posted content and has raised serious concerns how internet platforms could continue to operate if the decision is held.

David Drummond, chief legal officer at Google spoke to the BBC and said he was "outraged" by the decision. "I intend to vigorously appeal this dangerous ruling. It sets a chilling precedent," he said.

The video itself was uploaded by four school students who were later expelled from their school in Turin, Italy. The bullies were also convicted in a youth court. Google's lawyers argued that the company could not be held responsible for content uploaded to the service and that pre-screening all YouTube content was impossible. Over 20 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute.

In a company blog posting on Wednesday, Matt Sucherman, Google VP and Deputy General Counsel of Europe said it was "outrageous" that the employees faced trial at all. "We are deeply troubled by this conviction for another equally important reason. It attacks the very principles of freedom on which the Internet is built. Common sense dictates that only the person who films and uploads a video to a hosting platform could take the steps necessary to protect the privacy and obtain the consent of the people they are filming."

The three Google executives received six month suspended sentences after being found guilty of violating Italian privacy laws. An appeal court is expected to hear the case later this year. A Google spokesperson confirmed "we and our employees will vigorously appeal this decision."

Crazy. I expect Google to leave Italy if the ruling stands.

Wouldn't they have to leave the EU? I thought it was a one for all and all for one situation.

I have heard of this ruling but I don't understand how it is a violation of privacy. If anything it helped bring the bullies to justice.

Never gonna give you up...

Some prankster in Ashville NC was placing fake parking tickets under the windshield wipers of various cars. The parking tickets had cell phone scanable QR Codes and the words "Scan to appeal, pay by phone, or for details" printed above them. You can guess where the QR Code took them. Rickroll!

A real ticket is on the left, fake ticket is on the right. Try it out!
