Can't disable dns probe?

[Zonkd]

I can't disable dns probing for some reason.

admin@RT-AC86U:/# nvram show | sort | grep dns_probe
dns_probe=0
dns_probe_content=131.107.255.255 112.4.20.71 fd3e:4f5a:5b81::1
dns_probe_host=dns.msftncsi.com

Yet from the dnsmasq.log it continues on and on:
Mar 15 12:50:05 dnsmasq[31714]: 2 127.0.0.1/45892 query[A] dns.msftncsi.com from 127.0.0.1
Mar 15 12:50:05 dnsmasq[31714]: 2 127.0.0.1/45892 forwarded dns.msftncsi.com to 127.0.0.1
Mar 15 12:50:05 dnsmasq[31714]: 2 127.0.0.1/45892 reply dns.msftncsi.com is 131.107.255.255

Firmware Version:384.9. I am running Stubby, Skynet, Diversion. TrendMicro AiProtection is disabled. Any suggestions?

dns_probe_host=dns.msftncsi.com

Didn't RMerlin suggest that this is an Asus thing/issue? Maybe their next release will have fixed/removed this debugging looking piece of code.

Uncertain. I don't see it mentioned in his forum post for 384.9 release or in release notes here.
