They run a TURN server to get through NATs. Seems reasonable. They also have a few other servers required for bootstrapping to the DHT, receiving push notifications while running in the background on mobile, etc.

Indeed. Though I'll just clarify that even though bootstrap.jami.net is used as the default bootstrap node, it doesn't have to be, and can be easily changed from Jami's advanced settings to point to any other reachable machine running OpenDHT -- including another device running Jami and OpenDHT on your local network. Or you could use a DHT proxy (disabled by default on desktop/laptop, but enabled on mobile as it helps reduce battery usage) instead of having Jami running an OpenDHT node on your device. Similarly to the bootstrap node, the address for the DHT proxy can also easily be changed to point away from the default servers. Likewise for the TURN server address.
