That definitely doesn’t look like the right server, but nothing there shows how you got that answer. You could dial up the logging level and see if you get something interesting there.

Unbound is getting the responses straight from the DNS root hosts. If something is wrong with DNS, it's likely their fault on the other end and not your end.

Clearing the dns cache on the client seemed to help, Mac OS X 10.13 but the same issue happened on the pfSense box. I think charter was doing some DNS manipulation, someone at charter made a mistake or the spooks have put my dns traffic in the tunnel for them to tamper with. moving to DNSSEC and pointing my firewall to use a DNSSEC provider seems to have cleared this issue up.

I had similar/identical traceroute from a Mac OS X client and on the pfSense box itself using 127.0.0.1(unbound).
Seems like it would be interesting to have unbound log when DNSSEC could not be used becuase the root keys are invalid, either the time on pfSense is wrong or the ISP is doing layer 7 manipulation. i.e. like what happens when you live in China, Russia or the USA...
