  Yup, Google using its powerful position to make it seem like the generic owner of things when it is not. See also the sites: doc.new, docs.new, document.new, sheet.new, sheets.new, spreadsheet.new, slide.new, slides.new, deck.new, presentation.new, form.new, forms.new, site.new, sites.new, website.new, and probably others.

    https://whats.new/shortcuts/ https://whats.new/shortcuts/ A bunch of other sites have also 'claimed' some .new domains, like vue.new goes to codesandbox.io and api.new to RunKit.
