If you configured your client to hide enough information, Cloudflare tends to believe you are a threat. VPN users probably have that problem a lot more.

You don't have to hide any information. I don't hide any information and still get blocked because of the country I reside in.

Yeah, but even if you’re in an “acceptable” country you get blocked if you care about privacy. The point is that CF often blocks people.

And so Cloudflare becomes an enemy of privacy?

exactly. I care about privacy, and I do see that page often. Sometimes it helps to send a non-empty useragent string, or to enable javascript. Most of the time I just close the tab.
