Google Domains - $12/yr (includes private whois)
Squarespace - $20/yr (includes private whois)
Yeah, total rip off. There are plenty of Registrars that are at $12 (AWS), or less (Porkbun $9.73).
Google is double screwing it's users. First by selling them off, then by selling them to a price gouger.
> Squarespace said it will honor Google Domains customers’ renewal prices for at least 12 months following the close of the deal.
... knowing it meant Renewal Sticker Shock, eventually, for those who stay.
Everyone hates them but they're providing the a competitive deal because the domains are a lead for the read of their business.
