Extension:Math uses several external services for rendering stuff. There are a few problems that I can see:
- First, since Math is a bundled extension, it's possible that it's getting installed without people going through the MW.o page. This means that it's going to be contacting external services without the administrator being aware.
- Second, the $wgMathMathMLUrl default value uses a beta cluster endpoint (https://mathoid-beta.wmflabs.org) by default. That URL currently doesn't exist, but even if it did the current beta setup has various issues so I don't think we should be defaulting to that on third-party installations.
