Recaptcha: reCAPTCHA v3 is loading unnecessary fonts

Created on 9 May 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: google/recaptcha

Hi,

Per the reCAPTCHA V3 documentation we are allowed to hide the badge:

https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/faq#id-like-to-hide-the-recaptcha-badge.-what-is-allowed

However, hiding the badge does not prevent the two fonts used on the badge from downloading. reCAPTCHA V3 downloads two fonts each about 10KB, so that's 20KB of unnecessary data being loaded each time.

We cannot block the request because the CSS is inside the iFrame.

Is it possible to provide a configuration option that will disable the font, or maybe disable the badge altogether?
