Some people said that Nexus phones that default to encrypt local storage was user hostile as there was a perceptible performance penalty. I don't think that is the case. GNU and fsf want freedom for the user. I fully support the freedoms. However, I also think that users do not have a right to force their wishes on vendors.

I think it is fair to say if you don't like the options we give you then maybe you should fork the project and build it yourself.
