I thought the main reason it has become so visible is because so many bloody cyclists do it. Why do we keep trying to kid ourselves and others that it is only a small minority? Every junction I stop at on every journey someone will jump a red or try to. Which is not an argument about whether or not it is safe or why they do it. But RLJing is visible because it is so common. Just like spam.
I dont think RLJing has become more common. It has become more visible because there are more cyclists about and so if someone wants to vilify cyclists they will lazily select the most obvious cycling misbehaviours of a small minority.
