Turn encryption on by default. Otherwise, it won't be used.

we're pretty confident that the folks we want betaing it (e.g. the HN community) will turn it on. Meanwhile joe public has the option to experiment, but we won't turn it on by default until we're sure we've got the nastiest bugs out.

That doesn't really work when encryption can't be turned off...
