AMP is open to implement (or copy) for anybody with Google-scale datacenters, not for any company.
From the official site: "The Google AMP Cache is a proxy-based content delivery network for delivering all valid AMP documents."
In other words, you are welcome to tie yourself to Google infrastructure, not merely to a proprietary software platform that you can at least use on your own (like Windows etc. in the Microsoft antitrust cases).
