Yes, yes, yes. "AMP keeps users within Google’s domain and diverts traffic away from other websites for the benefit of Google. At a scale of billions of users, this has the effect of further reinforcing Google’s dominance of the Web." ampletter.org mathewi/951093696107134977Permalink On twitter.com

I too have co-signed. As it stands, Google's use of AMP to de-brand publications is dangerous and bad for readers and media companies. Google's push to deform SERPs with AMP is domineering and monopolistic. For AMP to continue this way is dangerous. Rich_Harris/951090284468801536On twitter.com

Google's current wielding of AMP is a blunt instrument to avoid: fixing their own problems; negotiating with advertisers and agencies; and healing an ecosystem they continue to harm. JackWellborn/951097617668345857Permalink On twitter.com
