Comment (by azaozz):

 > re we not just shifting the tracking concern off Google's services and
 onto WordPress' services instead?

 Yes, it may look that way, but this is only for logged-in users that have
 capability to install fonts. This type of users (site admins) do access
 w.org sometimes, for example when viewing the About screen, when looking
 at plugins or themes to install, etc. And yes, this is the way emoji
 images work too.

 I don't think loading the font preview images deviate from the existing
 use cases. This more or less matches how plugins and themes are installed,
 and w.org is accessed to get the info for them, and to download the zips.
