I still remember reading article about how Google tried their first quasi AMP service around 2005 or something like that
As far as I've read they were serving pages to people with other people's data like "Hello, {username}" and stuff, generally security nightmare.
Unfortunely I do not remember how it was named...

>Google Web Accelerator sent requests for web pages, except for secure web pages (HTTPS), to Google, which logged these requests. Some web pages embedded personal information in these page requests.
>Google received and temporarily cached cookie data that your computer sent with webpage requests in order to improve performance.
>Google crawled every web page it came across leading it to inadvertently deleting web pages.[1]
>In order to speed up delivery of content, Google Web Accelerator sometimes retrieved webpage content that the user did not request, and stored it in the Google Web Accelerator cache[2]. Some law experts and IT authors affirmed that Google would "combine personal and clickstream data with existing search history data contained in Google's own cookie"[3]
>Google Web Accelerator is no longer available for, or supported by, Google as of January 20, 2008. As of 2008 the Google Web Accelerator is not compatible with Firefox 3.0. Google Web Accelerator is still available for download from other websites. The Labs experiment launched in 2005 was discontinued and no longer supported by Google, since January 2009
