Maybe it's just the review, but it sounds similar to Serial Experiments Lain.
In Lain, some girl commits suicide but people were getting emails from her saying she lives inside the Wired. This gets Lain interested in the Wired, and the more she gets into it, she develops a split personality. Her Wired personality is basically an internet troll which unwittingly humiliated her only friend.
There's also the development that nothing is really known about Lain until it's slowly revealed that she herself is actually a product of the Wired.
Except Lain is an anime that came out in 1998 just when the internet was becoming mainstream.
