Unfortunately not. There is no benefit to leaving your critical files on anyone else’s infrastructure: https://csswizardry.com/2019/05/self-host-your-static-assets...

We used to use google.com for hosting jquery for us. Then when google.com started being blocked by the great firewall our site broke (it was pretty popular in China). It took a while to find out what went wrong, especially with the language barrier.

Back then we decided it's just better to self host. Less things can go wrong.
