sentiment140 dataset unavailable

[AndreasKarasenko]

Describe the bug

loading the dataset using load_dataset("sentiment140") returns the following error
ConnectionError: Couldn't reach http://cs.stanford.edu/people/alecmgo/trainingandtestdata.zip (error 403)

Steps to reproduce the bug

Run the following code (version should not matter).

from datasets import load_dataset
data = load_dataset("sentiment140")

Expected behavior

The dataset should be loaded just like any other.
The main issue is that it is no longer hosted by stanford. It is still available from a Google Drive Link.
