Hi @Jbichene, is there a reason you can’t use the [official data download page](https://www.drivendata.org/competitions/64/hateful-memes/data/) to get the data?

As for putting on Goggle Drive, **do not host the dataset using a third party.** Distribution of the dataset is prohibited by the license agreement as specified in [section 6](https://www.drivendata.org/competitions/64/hateful-memes/page/214/):

Sorry for the misunderstanding , i wasn’t looking to violate the rules .  
Where i live (Nigeria) we have really poor internet connection speeds and data subscription prices are high , i planned to use google Colab for this challenge,but with my internet connection this will cost me 10-12GB (which is expensive for a student) due to network interruptions and the size of dataset, so i was looking for a link to help me clone the dataset directly to my private google drive so that i can use it on colab.  
however ,since it appears there are no alternatives i will get to downloading the dataset.

Hey @Jbichene. You can download the zip file right into colab from AWS. Will take some 3 mins:

> !wget -O Lnmwdnq3YcF7F3YsJncp.zip --no-check-certificate --no-proxy “url here between quotation marks”

Hi @rjadr I am getting a “403 Forbidden” from this command on colab. Can you check and maybe give the command with exact URL? Thanks.

I see that this forum applied formatting to the quotation marks in my post above, this should work:

```
!wget -O Lnmwdnq3YcF7F3YsJncp.zip --no-check-certificate --no-proxy "url here between quotation marks"
```
