It actually makes sense. You wouldn't expose the most secret military base to the internet directly. The SGC systems must have been airgapped, especially in the early years.
How do you research then? You put in a request, a secure, internet connected terminal is used to grab that data, copied to hard storage, scanned for malicious code, then transferred to the SGC computers.
Pre-Web2.0 this wasn't an issue as sites simply returned static data. There were even projects that offered to crawl an entire website and save every page, every linked path, for offline browsing.
