    Yeah, it's wild to me that desktop operating systems don't encrypt storage by default. Both iOS and Android do.

      The threat profile for a desktop is different than a phone.

      You carry your phone with you everywhere.

      Desktops typically stay in one location that likely has locks.

      If you're truly paranoid, you'll encrypt your drive regardless. For regular joes like me, it's not enough for me to enable it and enter a password at boot up.
