Not a cloudflare user, I'm not quite familiar with what they do and don't. I'd welcome a blog on it, whenever there will be time to post one.
By "enabling" I mean allowing Javascript. I use https://noscript.net/ to selectively allow some sites. Unless necessary, I often close a tab rather than investigate its worthiness. I'm not sure how common this behavior is, as there is many a web site that apparently won't expose any information at all unless one allows it to run scripts on the local machine.
