I thought their transparency report was quite clear https://www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/transparency/

> 5. Cloudflare has never modified the intended destination of DNS responses at the request of law enforcement or another third party.

That's accurate, the DNS responses for these domains previously did, and still do, point to Cloudflare's WAF/CDN.

They haven't said anything like '...never blocked access to customer content...'.

It’s accurate in that bullshit isn’t technically a lie. If they’re willing to do this, they’re potentially willing to use their CDN to MITM DNS requests. Because after all, they’d be leaving the DNS request unmolested while doing the dirty work on their CDN.
