IPFS is a p2p file storage, so cloudflare doesn't control what content is put 
there, they don't even know who put it there, so it's a natural extension of 
their "we're not responsible, it's our customer's responsibility, but we won't 
tell you who that customer is" policy.

I chose to reject all IPFS URLs. If people have a legitimate use for 
them,they'll have to tell me so I make an exception for them.

Cheers,
Hans-Martin
