 Replying to [comment:7 dd32]:
 > Not sure if it'd even be possible, but what if Open Sans was loaded from
 a WordPress.org controlled CDN? basically a caching proxy of the existing
 Google-hosted font? That is more acceptable to me from a philosophical
 pov.. but would still raise privacy concerns from some people, and may
 shift more liability towards wporg in certain cases.

 I think this would probably be the only good way to serve Open Sans if not
 from Google; considering the need to have multiple formats of the font
 available for browser compatibility that currently make bundling a bad
 solution.
