What is the definition of "online" for this chart? The first website wasn't even up until 1991, so how can the line start at 1980?

BBS'es and Fidonet through modem were there before the web.

Don't think many found each other on BBS's but at least they could download low res porn.

In the early 1980s, ASCII porn :) NSFW: GIRL82.TXT, ripped by Usagi Electric
