Abstract
This document contributes to the ongoing discussion surrounding Internet consolidation. At recent IETF meetings discussions about Internet consolidation revealed that different perspectives gave completely different views of what consolidation means. While we use the term consolidation to refer to the process of increasing control over Internet infrastructure and services by a small set of organizations, it is clear that that control is expressed through economic, network traffic and protocol concerns. As a contribution to the discussion surrounding consolidation, this document attempts to provide a taxonomy of Internet consolidation with the goal of adding clarity to a complex discussion.
