If you wanna know, watch it again. All answers are hidden within the show.

Damn, those trailers are pretty good. Nice camera work that manages to capture Serial Experiments Lain's...weirdness.

I believe it may be in reference to the anime taking place in the “present time,” regardless of what year you end up watching it.

This was my interpretation too, because as long as the internet exists, it's relationship to how it affects the real world and the question on if both are equally real will forever be important, and so this anime will remain timeless.

I remember reading somewhere that the director put that in the beginning of each episode just to confuse people, it doesn't really have a meaning. I could be wrong but I don't remember where I read that

It means the anime takes place in the modern era, as opposed to some anime which take place in the past or future. Thank you for your inquiry.

I think it's supposed to establish the post modernist themes.

What if it was Lain saying it as if the term present time is a joke, because she can change time and space (as shown through the anime and in the last episode) making the term present time useless or directly owning it. That's why she laughs after saying it, she's mocking about that. PRESENT DAY PRESENT TIME HAHAHA (Lain troll noises) https://youtu.be/_KwhdDV581c
