It was backups from a corporate file server complete with home directories containing 128 kbps MP3s and dancing baby gifs, straight out of the 90s.

It’s actually saying “We like being netted by Captain Netware”. It’s a play on words and very similar to “going online” in German.
That makes more sense…
