Copyright infringement was also already illegal, but mass copyright infringement on major platforms didn't really get handled until the DMCA came out with specific responsibilities for how platforms had to handle copyright infringement.

Like, if you let 15 seconds of the wrong pop-song appear in a YouTube vid they will come after you because YouTube has to avoid being liable for that infringement, but the phone companies can let scammers run rampant without consequence.
