I do, it's a buzzword. Cloudflare, you don't have that? Your not cool unless you do.

With young apprentices learning the ropes of SRE/SysAdmin, DDoS protection has been painted as a #101 of the web when realistically you don't need it.

Also, Cloudflare is one of the easier free gateways to set up for your domain. Lots of people are using that (and Cloudflare apps) and they probably enable these protections without giving it a second thought.
