          Hop from platform to platform wrecking havoc to gain free services. Destroy capitalism with API queries!

        All these 'disrupters' operate on the assumption that their infrastructure costs will remain low because people don't full use platforms.

      Imagine if the opposite happened. This is basically how we get to DDoS activism. I make no recommendations, only note:

        We killed Twitter's profitability by using its infrastructure fully. Just imagine who else we could repeat the process with.

          In related news Facebook has started to warn me that I'm overusing its API. :D

            The one advantage to AMP is that at least you get to offload infrastructure costs on to Google.

              I like to imagine that one day, in protest, all news orgs will just redirect their pages to the Google Cached AMP sites and crash Google.

                "Here's your closed garden Google, now choke on it" is the sort of thing I imagine someone saying in a Hackers sequel.

                  We should open source a way to embed your API responses in AMP Google Cache & then build an API-driven site off that. Offload all your CPU.

                    I have no idea if that would work, but if it did that would be some super-villain level overly-complex trickery. But it would be fun!

                      Pass it into a WordPress plugin and I bet in a few years every fake news site would be forcing Google to pay their infrastructure costs.

                          It probably says something about me that in this James Bond/Google fantasy situation I'm role-playing as Goldfinger.
