#12I am somehow disappointed that all the text on the website is not displayed using the font itself :p

#13This would be incredible for some privacy applications if you wrote a wrapper on top of it to obfuscate the class names. Clearly visible to users, very difficult for bots to pick up without clearly looking for it.

While this may evade simple scraping bots, it's easy enough to render the page then use some type of character recognition to get the content.

#15How do these handle kerning? I'm guessing they are monospaced? Looking on the page I can't find any of the CSS Sans used in a sentence.
Edit: Found a demo page[1], it's monospaced.

I don't disagree. But the bot / tool rendering it would need to know to look for it.
You could even pass around "not so hidden" messages with it. Tell your friends, add this CSS class to the body to see the message.
Bulletproof, not at all. Just pointing out a clever use.

#17Fuck accessibility, right? Neat project, but please don't actually use this for anything serious. A lot of people use accessibility tools to interact with the web, and this this would make it nigh impossible for them to consume your content.

#18What is next? OS written in CSS?

They used CSS to create the font (presumably as an art project?), but it is available in plain OTF/TTF format, so it can be used as a normal font and doesn't need to be a barrier to accessibility tools.

#20How outrageous, this site does not work with CSS disabled.
