The behavior for browsers without support is to show the google.com/amp URL as before, along with a small html-based bar with additional information about the original domain and share intents.

With a button to disable AMP results entirely if that's the wish of the user?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

> share intents

Does that mean that the Google+ button is coming back? Seriously? Why not just serve the content and leave it at that? Is the tiny bit of extra data you get from a unique "share on Facebook" URL worth it?

The share button simply calls the browser's share API, for example: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/s...

> The Navigator.share() method invokes the native sharing mechanism of the device as part of the Web Share API.

I didn't know the Web Share API existed, but based on the RFC, it looks like yet another Google-driven "standard." I still don't see why it needs to be added to the page.
