Re:Kaggle Datasets – Discover and analyze open data by QasimK on Monday March 26, 2018 @08:21AM (#16678270)
Thanks for your response. I spoke slightly evocatively because this has caused issues for me and hence I didn’t like to see it advertised as “public”.

The biggest issue is that I cannot share my work with others (easily) if I use a dataset from Kaggle. For example, ideally I just want to have a notebook online somewhere which can be instantly downloaded and run by anyone. Having to (automatically) download a dataset is a hinderance, and having to create a kaggle account first is an outright blocker.

On the other hand using, for example, IPFS or a torrent would be better, because you can reference the dataset using a global identifier and anyone can easily get access to it.
