The comms around this has been weird —- I haven’t been able to find any mention of it from official Google channels. You’d think if they were planning to announce this they’d have a blog post and email to customers ready to go.

Thanks! I couldn’t find that. Notably, no mention of if the GCP Cloud Domains product is affected or the status of Google’s TLDs.

Cloud Domains is being killed along with Google Domains, TLDs are OK for now.

Thanks! Where did you find that info? I can't find it anywhere.

Firsthand knowledge, unfortunately.

In these transactions the users are what’s on offer. The least they can do is tell you to whom they just sold you.

Interestingly the support page has a banner notice.

Even if the move goes smoothly, shouldn't they let customers know what they're signing up for?
