Lol, 'they' also own the .com. Go watch Silicon Valley, the series .

Only Hooli that owns by HBO. Is Alphabet Google own Alphabet.com? No.. Is starship own starship.com ? No..

Ok, I'll be more clear. Hooli is a fictional company from the Silicon valley series. Not a real one. The domains are registered by HBO for brand protection. Worth to watch btw, quite funny.

I know that. But Alphabet Google and Starship are real companies. And they don't have the .com of their .xyz domains. I said Hooli owned by big company : HBO not Hooli. And Hooli is a satyre of real Silicon Valley Companies. While there is a marketing technique says that companies have to own dot com while making website, it is used as a joke while real Silicon Valley Companies don't think so. Of course some companies still believe they have to own .com. But for Google, Starship and some Silicon Valley start ups it is only a buzz.
