But don’t you have to opt-in to AMP to begin with? Wouldn’t there be some sort of implicit permission in providing the AMP formatted content to begin with?

- 0815test 8y agoDo you have to opt-in to AMP e-mail? Keep in mind that the sender then holds the copyright. For that matter, can your web hosting platform opt-in to AMP without your express consent?
- underwater 8y agoYou can deploy and AMP page, and set a meta header that announces it exists. This is not an explicit opting in to Google's AMP cache though. That's what the author means by implicit license.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoYou opt in to the internet by making content available on it too, so are we rolling back to the free copying of last millennium?
- d2wa 8y agoAs discussed in the article, some content management systems (like hosted WordPress.com instances) produce AMP variants of each published page. The author/rightsholder may not be aware of this and thus has neither expressly or implicitly agreed to anything of the sort.
