Bug: sudden 403 while loading i3d-kinetics model using tensorflow hub on google colab

[Endervamp]

What happened?

when i'm loading i3d-kinetics model from tensorflow hub on google colab i suddenly got HTTP Error 403: Forbidden.

I did notice that the urls are being redirected in the browser, so for instance:
https://www.kaggle.com/models/deepmind/i3d-kinetics/tensorFlow1/400/1?tfhub-redirect=true
when i open the this url:

•  https://tfhub.dev/deepmind/i3d-kinetics-400/1 in a new browser tab
  

it gets redirected into:

• https://www.kaggle.com/models/deepmind/i3d-kinetics/tensorFlow1/400/1?tfhub-redirect=true

this all worked without any errors before

tensorflow version i use is: 2.19.0
tensorflow hub version i use is: 0.16.1

Relevant code

import tensorflow as tf
import tensorflow_hub as hub
import numpy as np

model_ar = hub.load("https://tfhub.dev/deepmind/i3d-kinetics-400/1").signatures["default"]

Relevant log output
