Error when using gdown to retrieve LLFF dataset from Google Drive

When I run the command gdown 16VnMcF1KJYxN9QId6TClMsZRahHNMW5g, I encounter the following error:

$ gdown 16VnMcF1KJYxN9QId6TClMsZRahHNMW5g
/home/mhc/anaconda3/envs/FSGS/lib/python3.8/site-packages/gdown/download.py:33: MarkupResemblesLocatorWarning: The input looks more like a filename than markup. You may want to open this file and pass the filehandle into Beautiful Soup.
  soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(line, features="html.parser")
Failed to retrieve file url:

    Cannot retrieve the public link of the file. You may need to change
    the permission to 'Anyone with the link', or have had many accesses.
Check FAQ in https://github.com/wkentaro/gdown?tab=readme-ov-file#faq.

You may still be able to access the file from the browser:

    https://drive.google.com/uc?id=16VnMcF1KJYxN9QId6TClMsZRahHNMW5g

but gdown can't. Please check connections and permissions.

Additionally, when I click on the link https://drive.google.com/uc?id=16VnMcF1KJYxN9QId6TClMsZRahHNMW5g, I receive an "Error 403: Access Denied. Sorry, you do not have permission to access this page."

Does this indicate that the author has restricted access to the dataset? What steps can I take to download it? Thank you!
