Personally, several reasons:
- AMP sites, much like most mobile sites, are frequently little more than less-useable versions of the full site
- AMP's forced Javascript transition and loading icon easily overwhelm any questionable loading speed benefits and break flow
- AMP URLs are unusable for copy-paste
- AMP adds further control to the Google web hegemony
- Most importantly, AMP is not optional. If Google was implementing AMP for the good of the user, rather than additional control and data on user activities, they would provide the ability to opt out of their invasive, hostile protocol.
If Google still enjoyed the trust they once did, AMP might be acceptable, though annoying. However, thanks to their continued campaign to monopolize and profiteer off internet users' data, any activities that might allow them to further do so must inherently be viewed in the worst possible light.
