I still remember Cloudflare got sudden popularity after the TPB saga. Majority of pirate sites started using cf, for various purposes like to hide server IP from public to a free DDoS protection.. but now a days things started to change slowly. It is known fact that CF leaks all the data even on getting a simple DMCA request, from error 451 to stop caching pirate sites in japan.

Now the question arises it is blessing or curse ??

from a security perspective,  i can see why sites may want to use Cloudflare

from a user perspective, it can lead to several issues...... due to its 'redirecting' side effect  :facepalm

In my opinion, It's benefits are far outweighed by it's security issues and inconvenience

Its a curse on torrent sites when set-up incorrectly, just ask Prostylex .....
