I know, just teasing – I’ve worked in publishing, been published, and commit marketing communications daily myself when I’m not being a hypocrite lecteur. 
 
Seriously, I’d say we’re still very much in the infancy of the internet: we ain’t seen nothin yet.

He's a publisher, not a historian. And he's trying to sell books.

Let’s say “the internet” sensu ampliore, reaching beyond a nerd subculture, began with the Mosaic and Netscape browsers circa 1994. That’s seven years before the time in which BE is set, which in turn is twelve years ago.
