I don't know how exactly, but every time we load a youtube video, it will load fonts.gstatic.com.

There was a German court that says German sites owe 100 Euro to those using google fonts. I am not sure if this counts, but if it does, I can just remove the youtube embeds. They don't really serve a practical purpose for the website, itself.
