I don't use Matrix at all, but they proxy media for people?  How risky. 
 Yeah, but that's how fedi works in general. Moderation kinda fixes it.

No, mediaproxy has whitelisting and isn't enabled by default.  I certainly don't proxy media from people I don't know. 
 Obviously it's allowed. You know how easy it is to do a DNS takedown.  
 I was able to block it AdGuard. Such a needful tool  
 All the links are public anyways so it works i guess
