In the 90s there was a phrase called “surf the web”. You would find a website, then click though links to different websites (usually through an affiliate/partner section on the sites menu bar) and end up in all sorts of places. You might start out looking at Dragon Ball Z gifs and end up discovering emulators and roms. You might find something cool, amazing, personal, illegal, scary, or pornographic. It was the Wild West and there was a massive sense of unguided, uncontrolled discovery.
