> used by nearly every human on earth
Roughly 60% of earth's population used the internet in 2023. So not quite nearly every human.

3 out of 4, or 75%, seems like nearly ever human, I'd say (though it is a matter of opinion I guess.)
Much like the cliché "the internet is the sum of all human knowledge".
If you have deep specialist knowledge in a field that has existed for more than thirty years it can become quite obvious that the internet really in is nowhere near "the sum" of our knowledge.
And even the 60% is some hand wavy estimate about internet reach, about people using the internet frequently. More people use the internet than that, some transparently through some smartphone app or basic feature phone, which almost everybody has even in the poorest places in Africa.
Everybody knows avid users at 75+ or 10-, you haven't discovered something knew. But there are whole countries/areas/cultures where e.g. the majority of 75+ have no internet use, and no interest in getting any. You know, in the world, not in the US.
