title: access public files with google drive
body: <p>I've public files in my google drive account. I want to make a desktop application (.NET) for other users and this application needs read-only access to those public files in my account.
  Is this possible with google drive? </p>
  
  <p>i checked the documentation but i found only the following:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>OAuth2 authentication but if i'm correct this is used to give an application access to the user his own account instead of my account</li>
  <li>Service account but this is only usable if the program runs on a server i control. Not suitable for a desktop application</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Can someone put me in the right direction?</p>
