Proposing the standard sure, but importantly, prominently displaying it in search results.
If an AMP equivalent standard came out by Mozilla or Microsoft or Facebook, it would be an uphill task for them to get google to give those pages special treatment in search results.
Hence, there is an argument to be made about AMP being an anti-competitive (search engine dominance used to push it's own diet-html).
- amelius 9y agoI'm not sure if the actual format is relevant in a court of law, as long as anybody is capable of producing the format. For example, Google is already favoring HTML above, say, TXT pages. Demanding TXT to be shown as high as HTML in search results doesn't make much sense.
