I think what matters are the percentages. Out of the 16mn users where there more or less than in the general population? I think it is reasonable to think they were as many percentage wise, if not more - because internet provides anonymity which is an advantage.
Nowadays with the number of users of the internet converging slowly to the total populations, the percentages are probably converging as well.
