Re:Google has banned the training of deepfakes in Colab by ClassyJacket on Saturday May 28, 2022 @01:35PM (#31542154)
Last time I checked it wasn't available outside the US and Canada at all, and didn't have a terminal, but I just checked and both of those seem to have changed.

I'm also not a fan of having to upload files to Google Drive and then write special code to import them. It means my code isn't portable to run locally or anywhere else and it's just extra effort. I just want normal file access and to write scripts like I normally would.

Still, I was spurred to ask the question because some people are categorically opposed to anything Google due to privacy issues.

Technically that's not the target use case for Colab; it's Notebook in, Notebook out.

That's a use case more suited to running a VM itself.
