    Basically AMP is a copy of the website content hosted by Google for a “speedier load” but there are privacy, longevity, and general decentralization concerns with the “protocol.”

      Thanks for this - this is something that has passed me by. So essentially plagarising another website’s content for traffic plus the usual Google shenanigans? Nice

        I mean, the website opts into it (it can’t be done with any website), but otherwise yes.

          Obviously - I guess I’m more surprised at The Register in that case. They’re a very savvy industry magazine. Presumably they get a hefty wad.
