Oh no! They know where my VPN exit tunnel is!

Also, isnt the point of a CDN to deliver content to you from the closest available server? If CloudFlare can track that stuff, you should always assume that attackers can also have that information.

You can avoid this by not putting a man in the middle between websites and their visitors (aka CloudFlare).
