and you think this is a fixed target? you have full trust in a company that basically lies saying that it doesn't have an impact in search results?
i think it is important to keep in mind that google is just a group of people, and the people there right now may be truly well-meaning. but these guys are _already_ lying - do you trust that future google won't turn the knobs after they have basically tricked much of the web to comply?
- endorphone 9y agoyou have full trust in a company This is a strawman. AMP requires zero trust in Google. That has nothing to do with the argument. Right now I am not particularly concerned by AMP. I think it's a benefit for a large class of users, and avoids the web tragedy of the commons. It's also open to use by any other party (Bing, for instance, has started processing and caching AMP). I would prefer a fully open, cross-industry "lite web" filling the same need, but everyone seems too focused on FUD about Google than rationally discussing the topic.
