Most peoples' computers and phones have encrypted data storage by default now.
They are the digital equivalent of a safe.
But most people do not want to own, manage, back up and store their own data.
Just like most people do not own or think they need a safe.
The encryption is meaningless unless someone physically take the drive. The os has the key, and M$ owns the OS. So it can read that data anytime it wants. So can anything running on the machine generally. It's mostly theater.
But yes, my point was that people don't want to because it is too much work. It needs to be easier.
