Wasn't Google's excuse for AMP that it's a "standard" and everyone could use it (other search engines for example)? Now they want to add even more Google-specific crap to further lock it down. Not exactly surprising...
- three_seagrass 7y agoThe authorizor appears to be agnostic, so Microsoft can implement it with Bing's AMP too without Google.
- franga2000 7y agoThe content needs to be encrypted with the "AMP provider"'s key too, so each of the providers needs to be explicitly supported. The webmaster might go through the trouble of supporting Google and Bing, but I doubt many would bother with any of lesser-known search engines, if those were to adopt AMP.
- three_seagrass 7y agoMaybe, maybe not, but those are still options that are agnostic of Google. This doesn't rope AMP into being any more dependent on Google than it was before.
