The hints file should have it, but even without that, Unbound should have

If that doesn’t work, you need to inspect the network traffic. It’s possible
your ISP is blocking DNS traffic that’s not going to their servers.
I think you just hit the mail on the head with my ISP is blocking DNS
traffic that’s not going to their servers.
when I issue drill facebook.com I get rcode NOERROR, but
drill facebook.com @8.8.8.8
I receive error msg Error: error sending query: Error creating socket
I believe 8.8.8.8 is one of googles main dns services. I also tried
using the dns ip for at&t and got same results.
Now we both know that things are changing on the public internet to
address dos attacks. This is a transparent solution to many people but
comes to light with built-in "root zone" function of unbound. This
should be brought to the attention of the unbound maintainers so they
can remove the built-in "root zone" function from the source as it has
become obsolete.
Thanks for you help and insight.
