    Then the page is messed up with mojibake because sites now encode their cutesy icons as fonts. Usually I just deal with it but sometimes the icons are needed to use the site.

      I have found this rule template:

      [DOMAIN]##*:style(font-family: “[FONT]” , !important; src: local([FONT]) !important;)

      Of course you need to install the websites font locally before.
