Isn't Cloudflare an American company? I wouldn't trust them to hide that information from the American government.

And for some strange reason ThePirateBay uses it.
I'd guess they use it as a DDoS protection layer, and have more proxies behind them.
Cloudflare also runs a MITM operation on TLS connections.
Not relevant for the this site because the didn't even turned on HTTPS.
Seems to work well for carder forums.
