Chris Graham: Why Google AMP is a threat to the Open Web
Like others in the IT community, I have become increasingly concerned with Google's behavior with their AMP technology.
For those who aren't really aware what AMP is, it's Google's proprietary solution for speeding up mobile pages. Webmasters implement AMP, which is a kind of Google-sanctified and Google-code-driven version of your webpage. It works very well and solves an important problem. Often when you search Google on a mobile device it will show AMP articles at the top of the results, so you get access to fast content first, which is reasonable in and of itself.
