Rickrolling
Rickrolling är ett Internetfenomen. Istället för att komma till den sida en länk utger sig för att länka till så kommer man till en musikvideo för låten Never Gonna Give You Up framförd av Rick Astley[20]. YouTube hade detta som aprilskämt den 1 april 2008. Alla deras länkar på startsidan ledde då till samma video, nämligen musikvideon till låten Never Gonna Give You Up framförd av Rick Astley. En annan stor rickrollning som har skett var den 20 februari 2009 då en elev hackade göteborg kommuns skolnät.[21]
