 I noticed this about the same time I installed Ubiquiti gear at home,
 December 2018.

 Until this thread, I thought there was something wrong with my gateway
 router config. I could do UDP/TCP traceroutes, but ICMP kept dying.

 Glad to know it isn't my gateway, but frustrated as hell that Verizon

 cut a standard network protocol off at the knees.
