They are completely different scenarios. There wasn't ample evidence of who was doing it (not publicly available at least) and there wasn't one candidate who particularly benefited from the attack (that we know of). People start becoming concerned when a visible impact from the hacking starts to occur. If nothing was released from the DNC hack in 2016, then I'm guessing there would have been less outrage about Russian interference.
