Elephant in room. No-one anywhere should use 3rd party web fonts. The least is for a website to install needed fonts locally. It's even a sort of arrogance to use that rather than whatever the browser has locally.

I don't get the arrogance idea at all, but certainly a website should provide its own webfonts rather than link to privacy abusing Google fonts. I use webfonts extensively. I don't feel arrogant, I feel like I'm catering for people who, like me, enjoy good typography. I had several decades of using system fonts (Verdana, Arial, wow, what a choice), glad to move on. But if people want to burden the web with it all being Times New Roman, Georgia, and Verdana then their lack of arrogance (huh?) is matched only by their lack of adventure.
