20 years ago was 2006, I can assure you we were very consciously aware of things being permanently connected to the internet by then.

That said, sure, it had a fraction of the features back then, and only a fraction of the world population was connected to the internet.

And the world was better for it. Connectivity and internet are not inherent goods. They can be used for good purposes but it is hard to argue that has been the mean.
