Actually very few want it. In fact so many find it outright offensive that they have consistently refused to buy cameras with that feature. 

Don't believe me?

There is a reason it is called Secure Digital cards, more popularly known as SD cards. In order to support SD cards, the device has to support encrypted cards. This feature has literally been there for 17 years.

The feature is so negatively desired that manufacturers have hide that the camera is even capable of it.
