That's one of the reasons that I'm excited about decentralized storage. Data stored on dozens or hundreds of nodes spread across multiple countries and jurisdictions is much more robust to things like earthquakes, storms, government intervention, and companies going out of business or changing their profitability model. It has a much stronger defence against black swan events.
When you are storing many billions of files consuming many millions of disks, you become vulnerable to black swan events, simply because you are rolling the dice so many times.
