freeCodeCamp: Machine Learning with Python Projects - HTTP 403 from CDN

Describe your problem and how to reproduce it: There seem to be issue with loading dataset from the cdn.freecodecamp.org when using get_file() function. The problem occurs only when both these conditions are fulfilled - using that function and when data is supposed to be downloaded from cdn.freecodecamp.org. So this currently applies only to Cat and Dog Image Classifier and Linear Regression Health Costs Calculator notebooks.

There’s no issue when dataset is downloaded alternatively - using wget as in Book Recommendation Engine using KNN notebook, or when dataset is not on cdn.freecodecamp.org as in Neural Network SMS Text Classifier.

When replacing downloading get_file() with the wget alternative in the affected notebooks datasets downloads fine.
