Thankfully I dont save camera photos on their cloud, and use Google Photos and OneDrive instead

Few employees are going to lose their jobs for this I guess! This shows how unreliable cloud storage is!

Unreliable their cloud storage is. Had they used Azure, AWS or Google cloud for storing files, they wouldn't have had this problem. Their security levels are too high. They were using some custom on Premise Windows machines...

I thought storing my files in online is safe and reliable than storing it in Hard disks or external storage devices.
Now I have to rethink my opinion

bro , we can keep in online cloud . still it is better to keep back up in hard drive of important files , as even cloud storage data is stored in their servers .

Google drive, One drive, Box, Dropbox are very reliable and very safe. They have multiple copies of your same file on different servers. You will not get any downtime. Their security is also very high.

Mega too is safe, but certain countries and ISPs have flagged it unsafe for reasons I'm not aware of.

Piracy. Here you have availability to directly copy files to your Mega accounts.
