Wow this is really fucked up. Most people would automatically trust a link from Google.

And the link really results in the real connection to the real Google server, which then merily redirects to wherever.

Whover allowed that in Google, using the main google.com domain, what was he thinking?

For me, that is the major story here.

Wow, this should at least be googleusercontent.com or the like.

It seems amp started as a whitelist of well-known publishers and morphed into somthing like an open proxy.

Ended as the www.google.com becoming the redirector, by default, to anything, without having any query in the URL syntax. It broke what people knew how www.google.com behaved for more than a decade.

But if I understood correctly it started from the idea "Google hosts your pages (if I understand correctly, even the scripts!) now with Google's TLS certificate and on Google's www.google.com domain" which is also quite fracked up for what can be expected of www.google.com?
