From my understanding it was quietness that allowed lobbyists to pass the extension in 1998. I have been unable to find a great editorial I read a couple of years ago that detailed it, the only major resistance coming from a 1997 sized internet. I would hope a similar act with social media as it is today would be met with a much stronger resistance.
