doesn't work for me even with all of them disabled and JS enabled. It
simply displays all 3 OS names simultaneously. It makes no network
requests beyond the initial page loading either.
I guess this doesn't work if NoScript disables remote fonts at the highest

Firefox without using remote fonts or JavaScript, at least where I was
able to test:
