I use it for DNS and domain hosting, but that's it, none of their proxying stuff.

Why though? You have other options less detrimental to the internet than using and supporting them...

Domain registration and renewal is at cost, and DNS is free. I'm not sure what's detrimental to the internet about that...

My paid hosting is elsewhere, so they're not making any money off me.

For me it's because it's free, easy to use, and supported by ddclient.
