I think you are right and that OTR, and other encryption programs like it, could receive a substantial boost in usage if we could get popular distributions like Ubuntu to include and enable them by default. I think the classic quoted example is that of organ downer opt-in (in the us being 20%) and in some other country where it is opt-out it is around 80%.
