AMP as a "feature" is really just there to prevent you from leaving search results and google's sites.
It's a cover up for further closing down the open web and helping them bump ad revenue.
Hopefully you guy already know that.

It's really funny to me. They already had Android Chrome's "traffic optimizer" to tunnel all traffic through their servers. But I guess they wanted Safari and other mobile content as well, so they made this crappy web proxy, and now it affects everyone's use of the web. Like... they really didn't have to do this. But they knew they could, and knew it would only provide a minor annoyance to most people, so they did it. And predictably, people defend it, as if reinventing WAP were a good idea.
(To be fair: when I used a J2ME phone, I wrote WAP web services. But I'm not runnning a J2ME phone any more.)
