The site I was interested in is ampproject.org
<https://www.ampproject.org/learn/overview/>.

    Upon clicking 'privacy
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/>' at the bottom of
their pages, links to Google's privacy policy:

https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/

    There is /*no*/ mention of the 'AmpProject' being owned by Google
anywhere on the AmpProject that I can find.  This, alone, is deceptive.

    One item I find objectionable in the AmpProject/Google so called
privacy policy is:

  *

    *Device information
    
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/key-terms/#toc-terms-device>*


    We collect device-specific information
    
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/example/device-specific-information.html>(such
    as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device
    identifiers
    
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/key-terms/#toc-terms-unique-device-id>,
    and mobile network information including phone number). Google may
    associate your device identifiers
    
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/example/device-identifiers.html>or
    phone number
    
<https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/example/phone-number.html>with
    your Google Account.

    All this information is unnecessary and the linking of it is well
beyond intrusive.

    Which begs the question:

    Why use googlegroups.com for this app when Google is one of the
major global corporations which inflict 'privacy' policies which are
nothing short of surveillance and intended to increase the gathering of
individual's data across a multitude of services (Google, Gmail,
Android, YouTube and so on)?
