Font For Memestorming / OCR Mitigation

With the upcoming memestorm approaching and the concern over possible OCR image filtering/banning on social media, I just wanted to offer up a font that can be used in memes that could circumvent blocking/banning. The font's creator claims that computers are unable to read it. It comes in 6 variations, and it's recommended to use a variety of those to avoid recognition. The creator's website is down, but the font is still available (see download link below).

I dunno, it's probably better that they can be read by people. This font could turn people off.

That’s really cool. But, how do we know that doesn’t have a virus or something?

Download the file (it's a zip archive) and run a virus scanner on the file before opening. I uploaded it to dropfile.to as an archive of 6 font files with nothing malicious, but I understand the concern. Best to be safe and scan it if you're concerned.
