I think everyone's concern should be that Cloudflare or Google might just replace each IP in their 24h logs with a random UUID and call it anonymized. Both companies can potentially store enough information to correlate DNS requests with regular traffic logs.
It doesn't take much guessing to know who sent an anonymous DNS request for example.com to one of your countless PoPs if your CDN logs a HTTP GET request to www.example.com at the same location a few milliseconds later.
