Is there a way to use Baidu cloud legally from US/EU?


Baidu added support for Deepseek R1 at an attractive rate[1]:

$0.27 Mtok for input $1.09 Mtok for output

Is there a way to use it legally and without a Chinese phone number preferably?

You need a Chinese number to sign up and facial verification to make payments, as far as I can tell.
