RE: How Consolidation is Eroding Internet Resilience

[Vasilenko Eduard via NANOG <nanog () lists nanog org>]

I am very concerned too about "the Internet monopolization".
But not because of resiliency. Well, it is a problem, but not the biggest one.
The much bigger problem is that almost all small sites have become dead during the last 10 years (I have seen a few 
publications with statistics).
There is no Alexa 1M anymore.
Every country has a small set of monopolies that dictate the rules in their favor. Sometimes the dictate is already 
outrageous.
And when the government would come for the regulation, they would make things even worse, because monopolies already 
have weight for lobbying.
Unfortunately, a monopoly is unstoppable without government.
