Google Fonts not GDPR conform in Europe anymore! Need a solution urgently!

With a judgement in Germany it is not GDPR conform to use Google Fonts loaded from a US-Server. There is acually a huge action from a lawyer in austria to sue thousands of website owners because of this trying to get money out of this.

As it is definitly not conform with the DDPR in Austria and Germany, Weebly has to come to action as otherwise thousands of user have to withdraw from weebly.

Has anybody an other solution for that?

9/10/22 UPDATE: This issue has been resolved, but requires a re-publish of the website. Please make sure to log into your site editor and click the blue Publish button in the top right corner of the website as soon as possible. 

Just wanted to post an update here. Our team is aware of this issue and currently working on a resolution. 

In the meantime, I recommend visiting this Google Fonts page to make sure the font you are using in the editor is not on the list.

You can view and change the fonts you are using in the editor under Theme > Change Fonts

I will also keep an eye out for any known fonts that are okay to use, and will post any future update here.
