rewrite to forum post to following draft memo:

Google Colab can mount google drive.

The following code will mount google drive.
```python
from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/drive')
````

I discovered that this uses fuse internally

colab allows apt installation. sshfs can be installed. it may be possible to use it to not put files on google storage.

- I (=the contributor) do not have an ssh server. Therefore, I have not confirmed my idea that Colab could be used to not put files on Google's storage.
 
Maybe another strategy is to create encfs on google storage and use a virtual encrypted file system.
