My heart always questioned. My father, being a computer advocate, has always had the internet since its inception. I can remember him using bulliten boards back in the 80's on his old TRS80 radio shack computer. I can remember, years ago, first searching on line regarding JW's and the WBTS and not getting too many results.
So the answer to that question for me is no. I got out as soon as I could. Legally becoming an adult had quite a bit to do with that.
