I noticed the extra security measures at AMS as well, while flying AMS-BOM as well as AMS-ATL. I had to remove my laptop, charger, external keyboard, kindle, phone charger, and electric razor from my bag. I also noticed the incessant questioning by the security staff before actually going through security. Not sure if it is a new measure or if it is something that has always been done at AMS, but I have never experienced anything like it at other European airports.
