OP here. My website wasn't up when this happened because of some yak shaving, but when it is I disable DDOS protection. I was only using Cloudflare for domain registration and DNS. I don't think I have ethical issues with DDOS protection in general, but as someone who browses using Firefox on Linux with tracking blocking I know how annoying it can get. If I don't need it why bother? Plus I generally like to minimize opaque layers in my "stack".
