Fight back against Google AMP (2018)

Anyone else who inserts themselves in the URL should be fought as well.

I guess you're making a minor technical point, and it's technically correct. Someone else could do AMP better. But until someone does, why not shorten "Google's implementation of AMP" to simply "AMP"? Is there any other?

Bing also caches AMP content: https://blogs.bing.com/Webmaster-Blog/September-2018/Introdu...

I agree that there is a UX problem to solve (the address bar should show the original URL, copying it should preserve the original URL, etc) but whether the webpage got loaded from the original site or from some AMP cache is irrelevant.

Interesting, thanks for that. I don't really follow what Bing does.

It looks like Bing has the same problem, and serves AMP from bing-amp.com.
