They bought that TLD and then never did anthing fun with it. I can forgive them for not doing https://google, since that's discouraged apparently, but not even fonts.google? docs.google? mail.google? Apparently once upon a time you could do com.google for an April Fools prank but they didn't even keep a basic redirect. The only thing they ever permanently used it for (afaik) was domains.google, and they sold that to Squarespace. Why even spend the money?

They have several.

https://blog.google

https://ai.google

https://about.google

https://environment.google

https://safety.google

and a few others

the pattern seems to be that all of these don't use your google account, i suppose their system (through cookies or something similar) depends on the domain google.com somehow.
