==== Privacy Anti-Feature: Connects to Google ====

The template includes by default a set of ''link rel='' tags that trigger connections to Google services such as Google APIs. This makes any user in a site that uses this template, traceable.

**Current Situation**:

The offending line is as follows:

<code>
pinboard/main.php:29:    <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Open+Sans:ital,wght@0,300;0,400;0,600;0,700;0,800;1,300;1,400;1,700;1,800&family=Oswald:wght@200;300;400;500;600;700&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
</code>

[[wp>uBlock Origin]] correctly blocks this outgoing connection.

**Proposed Solution**:

The fonts should either be distributed by the template itself, or be left to a admin-level configurable action. An alternative service provider for free software fonts is the [[https://fontlibrary.org/|Open Font Library]].

I tried going to the Issues area in the linked GitLab, but it requires an account to even *see* the issue tracker.
