> begs the question; if you are not a highly wanted criminal.. why encrypt ?

For example, because you don't want the highly wanted criminal to
capture the password of your bank account which you are receiving in
real-time over a secured XMPP connection...

For example, because you are a reporter in a country like Myanmar.

For example, because you don't want other people to capture your
gossips using a tool like Wireshark.

For example, because you use untrusted wireless access points.
