[QUOTE=Mr Anonymous;48809222]DNS Propagation is only slow due to the server creating the record, the moment the record hits the 'Outside world' it's propagated almost instantaneously - though there are circumstances where this is different, like making the TTL bigger.
GoDaddy is known for being one of the quickest, if not [B]the quickest[/B] at DNS propagation. I can add a MX record on my domain and it be live before I even get the chance to do a who.is lookup.
TLDR; your providers hardware is slow.[/QUOTE]
Name.com is pretty fantastic as well. It is always instant, can't recall a time it wasn't.
I really liked this part:

Oh boy someone's gonna get fired
[QUOTE=DiBBs27;48802898]No it isn't
He did not obtain the domain through coercion of the company.
He rightfully bought it from a domain distributor. Regardless of whether google.com is owned by a company or not, its not his fault, it's the fault of the distributor for listing it.
The only way that this would have played out would have been google sueing the distributor for listing and selling an already owned domain and then paying off the buyer for the domain.[/QUOTE]
There's a process for claiming squatted domains, which almost 100% google would get it back in

Don't forget their stupid habit of hosting multiple websites on the same IP, you block one of those websites, every other website on that IP is blocked
It shouldn't be valid... if the domain name hadn't expired and the owner (google) hadn't transfered it, that should not be a valid ownership claim to the domain name. The registrar didn't have a legal right to sell it in the first place, so Google is well within their rights to just take it back.
A lot of you have got it wrong, he bought it from google himself (Google domains) not a third party registrar.

He bought Google.com from Google's own registrar basically. Someone/the system screwed up and somehow listed google.com as buyable and he bought it.
That's what I assume happened.
