Are ports 445 and 139 blocked on droplets at the digitalocean end?

For example when I do a port scan from my home computer, to my droplet, I see the windows file sharing related ports are blocked.

Including ports 139 and 445 that samba uses.

(“filtered” means that a firewall is stopping any response, so it’s as good as closed. So even if I did have a service running on those ports, it wouldn’t be accessible)

I’m wondering if that blocking is happening at digitalocean’s end, or at my end. e.g. If it’s digitalocean’s ISP, or digitalocean. Or my ISP. Or my router blocking those outgoing connections.
