As a punishment: Compile and install ISC BIND from source and configure it 8)
Many home routers can resolve starting from root or if you must then: 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 will get you started. You might consider 9.9.9.9 and there are quite a few others.
I never, ever, ever, recommend using ISP provided DNS unless you know how they are configured. The anycast jobbies at least publish a policy of some sort.
Drayteks have a lot of options built in, including a funky DNS implementation. I've personally largely dumped them for rather more complicated jobbies but they are still very capable.

Which home routers can resolve recursively instead of needing upstream DNS? I’ve never seen this across many brands of home routers.
Your ISP publishes T&Cs and a privacy policy too.
Furthermore, your ISP’s resolver is probably in your ISP’s network, so your queries don’t have to go out through peering/transit.
"Which home routers ..."
