True, preferably it shouldn't. It may be, though, if it forwards to a
resolving DNS that easily flies below the radar and doesn't get blocked
for abuse by a DNSxL.
I don't recall if the OP is running dnsmasq on his local DNS.
However, when he dropped his ISP's nameservers and his local one became
the first listed, it started to work. So his local DNS seems not to
forward to the same nameservers he originally showed.
