Some (clueless) people believe that. But there are still people around who
actually understand networking. For instance, the Google public DNS servers
respond to ping just fine (which is why "ping 8.8.8.8" is one of my simpler
"is external connectivity working" tests).
And back on-topic (which I've missed apparently), ssh seems to work just fine.
I guess they've cancelled the telnet service.

Do you
actually get a response from a telnet to 93.104.238.74? I
don't--it times out. Likewise, a ping fails.
Ping fails everywhere these days. For some reason people think it
increases security to block it.
