Google Cloud Domain seems unaffected? Unsure it that is expected to change, never know with google these days.

Google Cloud Domains as a product will continue to function but it’ll be an interface to Squarespace: Squarespace will be the registrar.

“Yes, you can continue to search and register for new domains using Cloud Domains. After migration, Google Cloud becomes a reseller of Squarespace Domains. When you buy new domains using Cloud Domains after migration, the registrar of record is Squarespace.”

The least bad outcome.

Unfortunately cloud domains domains are going to managed by Squarespace.

> What do you need to know? Upon closing of the Squarespace-Google Domains transaction, Squarespace Domains will become the registrar for your domains managed by Cloud Domains.

That's fine, though. AWS Route53 uses a number of third-party registrars like Gandi.
