That's a whopping 6% of the american population in 99.
why are you taking this so seriously go outside and touch some grass boy
I can't believe you're still worked up about this. Do you have a life?
In 99 we only had crappy dialup and I didn't really know how to browse the web, even if I sort of understood the basics (and I would have been six, admittedly). My dad would look up cheat codes at work for games I was playing and download the Web page onto a floppy drive to bring home to me. It was wild times.
That to say, the infrastructure was all there, but it's hardly guaranteed as a kid that you're browsing the web and know where to find all the best glitches.
