Just because a few people where discussing this doesn't make it out of line. I remember 2003-2006 well enough. There was no discussion in society about this.

This - it may be the case that Wikipedia was discussing this, but mainstream society was just the same as now.

The episode of Brass eye lambasting the scares about it actually came out in 2001, so the assertion is nonsense.
