In no way am I arguing that you shouldn't wipe your data, use encrypted filesystems, or anything like that. That is a totally legitimate thing to do.

We're just talking about drawing attention to yourself from governmental agencies that probably don't have your well-being as their highest concern.

Using state-of-the-art encryption to keep your files safe is good. But if it leaves any evidence that you are indeed using encryption, you are potentially drawing attention to yourself. And people should be aware of that.
