Is it possible to get unbound to talk to the root servers via TLS/HTTPS by now?

I'm currently using Quad9 because they support DNS over TLS and DNS over HTTPS.

Not sure you would even need encryption. Surely It can't be illegal to ask the root servers (and all the other DNS servers involved, because the root servers only have IPs for TLD DNS servers) for IPs

Not illegal but it leaves all your DNS lookups in plain text with your ISP, which just doesn't sit right with me.

Not that the ISP in my country would care.
