Most interesting is the assertion by the german court (see the linked tarnkappe notice, in german though) that Cloudflare is anonymizing the users of their CDN/Proxying Service which makes prosecution harder.

I'm suprised by that because Cloudflare must know the real IPs to forward traffic to for their services to work and I have not read anything that implies that Cloudflare might not have produced that data following a court order of any kind.

I have however seen private trackers and other pirate site use cloudflares services. I am kinda suprised by that since I must assume that pirate site operates would be aware that cloudflare is not actually providing any court proof anonymization or is promising anything like a non-logging/zero knowledge/Anonymization layer like tor or ipfs.

Can anyone enlighten me on that matter?
