To which remote ethereum nodes does Metamask plugin send signed transactions? and are they exposed to denial of service attacks?

so metamask allows in it UI to connect to different ethereum nw ( public/ testnet) right. 1] so who is maintaining these peers? and 2] can i trust these peers?. 3] if yes can i setup similar service on my machine without subjecting my machine to DOS attack and affecting my machine ? and how?
