View submission: Why did I build AmputatorBot?

Oh yes of course, thanks for your explanation!

When a user clicks on an website through Google Search, they collect:

• What you searched for

• Which search result you clicked on

• The relation between clicks and impressions

• The default stuff, such as location, device etc.

• And probably a lot more based on your account settings

When you click on a Google AMP page through Google Search they gather the above stuff and.. Probably a lot more. The issue is that there doesn't seem to be documentation or research that shows what data is being gathered when you visit an AMP page (aside from this article[1]. Please let me know if you're able to find more!)

Is Google intentionally vague? I don't know, but I do know one thing: when you visit an AMP page, Google collects personal data, when you visit an non-AMP page, chances are they aren't.
