Maybe you've noticed that a lot of websites these days will not just show you text, but they will do so in a fancy font.
That font is probably not on your device, but needs to be downloaded from Google (or another "free" provider of font hosting). So even without installing any cookies, Google now knows you're visiting that website. Spyware galore.
Anyways, why do we need these hosted fonts? Why not use the ones that are on any modern device already?
Maybe because we don't really know what we already have.
This website,
https://modernfontstacks.com/#font-stacks, helps to change that. It just shows you the fonts that a user probably already has, and it shows these fonts in an appealing way too 😊
