 Following our guide on how to import the Tor Browser signing key:
 {{{
 gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 0x4E2C6E8793298290
 }}}
 leads to an error:
 {{{
 gpg: requesting key 93298290 from hkp server pool.sks-keyservers.net
 ?: pool.sks-keyservers.net: Host not found
 gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect: Connection timed out
 }}}
 Alternatively one is getting a "Connection refused" error.
