Font Awesome
Font Awesome is the most widely used web icon toolkit, delivered as a font or SVG set and very commonly loaded from a CDN. It is detected from its CSS and asset URLs and characteristic class names.
It is purely presentational, but as a frequently CDN-hosted dependency it is still part of a site’s third-party code, and an outdated or unexpected source is worth noting.
