April 20, 2017–Today’s FCC meeting was briefly interrupted by protesters in the audience who stood up and sang along with a recording of Rick Astley’s 1980s hit, “Never Gonna Give You Up,” to symbolize their undying commitment to supporting open Internet rights, as Free Press explained the brief demonstration in a press release. As the protestors were escorted from the Commission Meeting Room, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai defused any tension by singing along and reminiscing about the music video from three decades ago, eliciting laughter from those remaining in the room as well as from his fellow Commissioners.
