Can’t you avoid using a CDN by just hosting the files locally? I’m not sure why the author had to make his own font to avoid using a CDN. They seem like separate issues.
I’ve had issues doing the with Google Fonts for some reason. When I pass in variables they don’t seem to get parsed when I’m hosting the source. I could not figure out why some time ago but maybe I should try again.
Well actually not only services, some malicious exploits are backdooring CDN pages…
For instance this one is using this technique in order to persist: https://github.com/samyk/poisontap
I am not ready to make my own fonts, like the author.

Agreed. I think the author was talking about reducing dependencies, in general.
