Description
Hi,
My employer has been using Google Fonts on one of their websites since it launched a few months ago. On the 30th of July we were informed by Google Ads that all of our ads have been disabled based on the [Malicious software](https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/6020954#311) policy.
After several weeks of back and forth, we have now been informed by Google Ads support that the reason for this is our use of Google Fonts. They have instructed us to remove the `https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:300,400,500,700,900|Montserrat:100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900|Raleway:100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900&subset=latin%2Clatin-ext` link from our website in order to get our ads reinstated.
Is there a security issue with Google Fonts that I'm not aware of?
Thanks,
Josh
