It's not though.

I thought it was, and posted this same comment on the other telnet article. But I was informed that it is back! And I was able to confirm it myself.

I don't have a telnet client on my Mac, but I was able to confirm with nc.

    nc towel.blinkenlights.nl 23

No it's not, it only works on ipv6 now.

Thanks for pointing that out! My ISP, (Orange Belgium), does not support IPv6 yet!
