How were criminals the early adopters of Internet, Video streaming and AI?

They weren't but it makes certain people feel better to say it.

Single examples:

Internet: The Cuckoo's Egg (nation state, more so than criminals maybe, but it's a blurry distinction)

AI: Elon Musk youtube (often cryptocurrency scam) ads

Video streaming was more obviously exclusively a porn thing
