So pirate sites cannot use CloudFlare. But isn’t that against their ToS?

Im just confused - can somebody explain me this?

Pirate Sites are stupid. And the need for a Site is a stupid limitation of Bittorrent. People should use real distributed protocols like SoulSeek, Kademila or other similar file sharing protocols that do not require a website for discovery.

SoulSeek still relies on central servers for some things. Every time they go down, people go to the sub reddit to ask what's happening.
