There's been a push since 1997 at least to have gatekeepers added to the Internet.

All kinds of politicians, international and national, including Hillary Clinton (senator and Secretary of State, 3rd or 4th in line to the Presidency) have been saying for 20 years they want gatekeepers.

There were laws passed that specifically enabled consolidation and centralization.

You figure that congress and the senate "just happened" to pass those laws?
