    Some of us hate downloadable web fonts so here's how you can stop websites (including techpowerup) from forcing their glorious fonts down your throat.

    1) Mozilla Firefox

    Open about:config
    Set "gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled" to false.

    2) Google Chrome
    Right Click Chrome's launcher icon, click "Properties".

    At the end of the launcher string add the following:

    " --disable-remote-fonts" (without quotes).

    You're done.
