Google Rickrolls code-diggers in new YouTube APK

The Android YouTube app recently got a relatively minor update, which mostly focused on making playlists better, but of course there is always a chance that future changes could be hinted at in the code. So, Android Police founder Artem Russakovskii started looking through the APK code to see what he could find. Artem got pretty excited when he found a string labeled "music_pass_onboarding_tutorial_uri", with a link to what appeared to be a video tutorial for the long rumored YouTube music service, but it was actually just a classic Rickroll. 

Google even rubbed it in more when Artem posted about the joke on Google+. The official +Google Developers account commented on his post with "Never Gonna Give You Up" lyrics saying, "We've known each other for so long. Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it. Inside, we both know what's been going on. We know the game and we're gonna play it."

And, so, the game plays on...
