Use the anonymous CDN for Font Awesome

In 2016, Font Awesome introduced a new way to get their font library, via a URL like https://use.fontawesome.com/CUSTOMCODE.js

The problem with it is that it's tied to an individual's email, which means it's actually trackable. That can be a legal issue when it comes to disclosure of data and is something best avoided whenever possible. Not to mention, we don't allow tracking unless it's opt in.

We need you to use the font-awesome anonymous CDN - https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/fontawesome/

So you just gotta switch to the 4.7.0 CSS which means changing your icon classes and register_scripts():

wp_register_style(
  'fontawesome',
  'https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css',
  [],
  '4.7.0'
);
