Aka "the overwhelming majority of the world". Dude, you struggle to get decent 4G in the UK outside big cities...
I do agree that the "immediate background upload" model is superior to encryption; it's also definitely harder from a logistic perspective. One feature does not exclude the other though -- in fact, uploading an already encrypted stream would be highly preferable in order to thwart interception (which is a massive problem everywhere, including patriot-act US and snoopers-charter UK).
