I wonder what will happen if Linode routes their traffic through CloudFlare...

  It wouldn't work. That's not what CloudFlare does (right? they didn't do BGP last I heard). You'd need something like Black Lotus, now owned by Level3, for that.

    You're technically correct as of Fri Jan 29 15:48:27 PST 2016. (email me if you'd like more detail; you seem smart/interesting but don't have email in your hn profile)

      Transparent scrubbing would be awesome, have CloudFlare advertise my networks, then CloudFlare on the backend sends the clean traffic to me... Can do it with peering with CloudFlare directly, or even if that is not possible MPLS on the backend to direct the traffic to where it needs to go.
