Android手机加密面临挑战：谷歌推广受阻于制造商抵制
据华尔街日报最新报导，谷歌近期大力推动Android手机加密技术普及，但遭遇部分手机制造商的明显抵制。制造商们担忧加密技术可能影响低阶手机的性能表现。
This comes as The Wall Street Journal reports that Google has been actively promoting encryption technology for Android devices, but faces resistance from some manufacturers who fear encryption may degrade performance on low-end smartphones.
这一争议的背景是：在加州圣伯纳迪诺市枪击案中，苹果公司因拒绝解锁嫌犯iPhone而与政府对峙。调查人员指出，如果主嫌法鲁克(Syed Farook)使用的是Android手机，情况将大不相同 - 因为市场上真正加密的Android设备极为罕见。
The controversy emerges following the San Bernardino shooting case where Apple refused to unlock the suspect's iPhone. Investigators noted that had the main suspect Syed Farook used an Android device, the situation would be different - as fully encrypted Android phones remain exceptionally rare in the market.
值得注意的是，谷歌其实一直积极推动设备加密。其自主品牌Nexus系列手机默认启用全盘加密功能。但其他Android厂商的配合度明显不足，导致Android生态系统的安全防护出现明显缺口。
It's worth noting that Google has been proactively promoting device encryption. Its Nexus series smartphones enable full-disk encryption by default. However, the lack of cooperation from other Android manufacturers has created significant security gaps in the Android ecosystem.
行业分析师指出，这种分歧反映了智能手机市场的一个根本矛盾：安全需求与成本控制之间的平衡难题。特别是在新兴市场，价格敏感型消费者往往更看重设备性能而非安全功能。
Industry analysts point out that this divide reflects a fundamental conflict in the smartphone market: the balance between security needs and cost control. Particularly in emerging markets, price-sensitive consumers often prioritize device performance over security features.
