"Use of custom fonts in sites"



Hello,

I see this site recently started to use a custom font in this site.

For people who are interested in security, and running noscript firefox extension, the site become unreadable, as the custom font is blocked.

The reasoning for blocking fonts is mainly because it is a bridge to native code[1].

Not sure if this was taken into account while planning this switch.

Regards, Alon.
