I've noticed the exact same thing since yesterday on my home Spectrum
network. Traceroute to 4.2.2.2 dies on the same hop. I spent the last hour
on the phone arguing with them and they're finally opening a ticket to look
into it.

C:\Users\Eric>tracert 4.2.2.2

Tracing route to b.resolvers.Level3.net [4.2.2.2]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
