Could be a cyber squatter.
Absolutely could be. Interesting nonetheless.
I did a Google search for WhoisGuard, Inc. and I believe it is a cyber squatter. Not really interesting. The squatter is kind of a speculator. It hoped the DNC would switch Hillary for Biden and that it could cash in on the domain by selling it to the DNC for a premium.
OR it was purchased to LOOK that way, without being obvious. Like I said, "interdasting".
WhoisGuard isn't a speculator. It's a service for masking the owner of a domain. It's useful if you want to maintain your privacy. I think it is operated by NameCheap but it may be independent.
According to this, you’re correct https://wphostingdiscount.com/what-is-whoisguard-and-when-to-use-it/
But here’s some stuff suggesting cyber squatting:

That doesn't implicate Whoisguard in cyber squatting, rather it demonstrates it is working to protect privacy. The lawsuits are filed against WhoisGuard because someone registered a similar name; that was the only target they had.
I usually am ;)

Or perhaps it was going to be used in a phishing scheme https://www.theverge.com/2020/3/5/21166485/facebook-lawsuit-namecheap-faked-domain-names-phishing
That's entirely possible. I strongly support privacy, however. It's one of the things that helps prevent doxing and harassment of sites just like this one.
