As for dig +trace, I just did that on www.ubuntu.com, with the attached output (this is on my VPN).
Note: I'm not sure why this is, but sometimes using the dig +trace command will simply return much less info, like so:
dig +trace www.ubuntu.com
; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Ubuntu <<>> +trace www.ubuntu.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Received 28 bytes from 127.0.0.1#53(127.0.0.1) in 0 ms
Perhaps this is expected, but I thought I'd mention it.
