Description changed by allendav:

Old description:

New description:

 The twitter and facebook buttons in the page footer are flagged by some
 privacy extensions like ghostery as poor for user privacy. Let's replace
 the script powered buttons with plain buttons to those social media
 services.

 To reproduce: Open https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/ incognito with the
 ghostery extension active.
