When I specify that the font used on my page can be accessed at a particular URL, I’m neither asking you to download it (the font might already be installed on your system), nor am I requesting that, if you do download it, you pass along a “referer” header. I am not only not making your browser do this - I’m not even asking it to do so.

You are saying: "To properly see this page, download this instruction file (CSS) from this other host". It doesn't matter if I have the font already installed, I still ask the CSS file to Google.
