Cloudflare doesn't help you against UDP floods if your backend is publicly accessible on the internet.

For example:

curl https://104.154.116.193 -H 'Host: www.stream.me' -v -k

Indeed, it's a recent integration and we haven't yet shut off that IP.

Btw, check out curl's --resolve flag. You can use it to override default DNS resolution and can then drop the -k flag.
