The beta of Firefox on Android still hasn't allowed any add-ons to auto-redirect away from AMP-enabled sites. I was excited to see Privacy Badger enabled 2 releases ago, but even its tracking-token-stripping capabilities seems missing on mobile.

You have every right to be indignant, but I could have really done without that imagery.

I'm wondering about this as well? Who was it?

I'm pretty sure there were many internal discussions as to why/how to push this change. I'm surprised that those haven't been leaked.

For real. For the most part I love all things Google, but AMP makes my blood boil. How does it save me any time when I have to tap that little ‘i’ to get to the original website through all that janky scrolling? Ugh, infuriating. I feel like a walrus on a tar floor maneuvering through AMP pages. What an awful piece of technology.
