You can automate root-server NSID probing from your location with nsidenumerator, https://github.com/insomniacslk/nsidenumerator (spoiler alert, I'm the author).

I'm from AS 24608, IP range 62.13.160.0/19. 
I'm the ISP... Unless one of my upstream is hijacking, noone is supposed to inject anything in my AS. 

Let me have dinner and I'll VPN to office (I'm on mobile now) and get nsid query response. 

Ciao, 
A.

Don't forget that name servers, specially anycasted name servers, are 
often "shadowed" by rogue servers, when an ISP injects a route in its 
IGP. 

Using NSID (message from Wes Hardaker) is often a good heuristic to 
spot them, since the rogue server typically don't bother to send back 
a correct NSID response. 

For instance, RIPE Atlas probes 20778, 22780, 24749, 25652, 25669, 
25818, and 32947 all see an answer 192.228.79.201 when they query 
199.9.14.201 about b.root-servers.net's IPv4 address. In all these 
cases, the answer is not accompanied by a NSID, showing there is a 
rogue server (or a transparent DNS proxy redirecting to a resolver). 

Probes 17706, 29748, 30356, 31735, and 32895 see the correct answer 
but no NSID: rogue server, or middebox stripping NSID option.
