    Why do you need full disk encryption in your day to day life? Are you a secret agent? I feel like that would give you our though.

    It’s not a matter that I would have nothing to hide, this defense is stupid. It’s a matter that you should use a security adapted to your need, because the cost doesn’t offset the benefit otherwise. And with disk encryption you will far more often be sorry than happy if you’re a normal person.

      Full disk encryption is something you really want to have when your computer is lost or stolen.
