> since Windows 8 _all laptops_ that I have been able to buy had Bitlocker enabled out of the box, not to mention that it was practically standard IT police for any large Windows shop.

Please, the current context is "average user" not an "average enterprise". In the latter case I agree with your assessment.

It's not like I don't buy my laptops at the same places average users do. Can you show me one model of a laptop in sale today with Windows 11 that does not enable Bitlocker by default ?

Less than 1.5% of PC's are on Windows 11, I don't think it's a representative sample of "average user".

OK, is that because you have in mind a Windows 10 laptop which does not enable Bitlocker by default ?
