This is a surprising move by Google, one would think there would be no benefit them selling the domains business?

Squarespace hopes to convert some of these people into customers of its site building and other tools

No thanks

Squarespace will honor Google Domains renewal prices for current customers for at least 12 months

This quote has me slightly worried, especially considering some Google domains already cost almost triple of a regular '.com'
