Does that mean you're using it to resolve hostnames on your local network, or is your raspberry pi actually resolving example.com for requests? If it's the former, that means you're adding A records in unbound.conf and then setting your clients to raspberry pi IP in /etc/resolv.conf If it's the latter, hopefully you have a backup NS and it's something a) outside of your home where the raspberry pi is and b) something more substantial than the raspberry pi.
