Apparently a German court ruled that embedding fonts from Google Fonts is not "fair" to the user. You either have to ignore parts of the GDPR or you accept to not be able to do many useful things.

You can do useful things without selling user data to Google.

Yes it's selling: You provied the data, Google gives you hosted services back. If you think embedded fonts are useful for you, you can host them. Then you pay the bill and not your users.
