Thanks for the report. Yes, it's a known (and recurrent) issue and we need to host data files in a more reliable location. This was recently done by mirroring those files in https://github.com/symerio/postal-codes-data and serving them via https://symerio.github.io/postal-codes-data/ .

Next step would be to make changes in the code to fallback to this location when the original one is not working (#41). Additional complexity is that in this second location files are directly served in in the .txt format without being included in a .zip so the load function would be slightly different.

Overall I'll try to look into this in the near future.
