 I am aware, that is why I am against both port forwarding and dynamic dns  
 it's a web server.

 The URLs , whoever control the relay domain / url , they control the web service. 
 you don't understand how this works

 There is a proxy in between, from your example: socks5h://relay.8333.space:8882

That transfers all the control to this proxy alone, they get to choose what and how they want to display šŸ‘€

If it is someone with malicious intent, they will do whatever they want. 
 it's end to end encrypted, so no.

 curl -s -x socks5h://relay.8333.space:8882 https://nprofile1qqs8a8nk09fhrxylcd42haz8ev4cprhnk5egntvs0whafvaaxpk8plgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuwpnxvejuumsv93k2g6k9kr/v1/info --insecure

This command makes a request to relay.8333.space:8882 with a profile key; it is up to the server to decide if they actually want to serve the real content; they can just swap it out for something they run themselves (pretty much how pi-hole works by swapping DNS of ad agencies to trash), and the certs are self-signed.

You would never know if what you see is actually coming from your own host or has been altered. 
 this is a demo. you can just as well download the cert and tell curl to use that to verify. 
 you'll be convinced once I demo an ssh session on nws

 how I do ssh:

https://github.com/bitfinexcom/hypertele

 Holesail uses Hypertele but combines it into an importable npm package.

 Actually no, it is inspired from hypertele but is a separate package with a lot more features.

To expose SSH just do: sudo holesail --live 22

 ha, posted at the same time lol

 you mean they create their own version of hypertele using DHTs, rather than hypertele directly?

 Looking forward to it mate, no hard feelings I am just worried about the security issues with this system.

 Even if it is a demo, it uses a relay which is a proxy. Proxies can change content, or the host itself
