Well, let's just hope your business model doesn't get co-opted by a giant company one day. That would be horrible.

I think we are talking about different things here. You, as an AMP engineer are talking about how Chrome implemented this [1], but I'm talking about how Chrome is not a user agent, because it demonstrably acts as Google's agen
