Comment (by aristath):

 Google Fonts and privacy has been a recurring issue...
 A solution to this would be to locally host the Google Fonts. An
 implementation for themes has already been suggested in
 https://make.wordpress.org/themes/2020/09/25/new-package-to-allow-locally-
 hosting-webfonts/ and if that code (or a variation of it) finds its way in
 WP-Core, we can keep Noto Serif (or any other font-family we choose in the
 future) without any GDPR concerns.
