There is a difference between smart and intelligent. A person can be one or the other. Some are both. My grandfather wasn't an intellectual but he was a smart and successful person despite not having gone to high school. Unconventional at times yes.

If someone is literate and has internet access and still has shit for brains, then I would consider them unintelligent. That's about half the population from my experience.
