No chance.

This "install your own root CA" trick is being used widely in corporate environments to allow proxies to snoop your HTTPS connections ; caused no end of trouble with clients using independent Firefox installs (Chrome uses the system certificate store, Firefox has it's own) navigating to our pages (with properly signed certificates) and being told they were a security risk.

Firefox told them it's an untrusted cert and a security risk because it's an untrusted cert and a security risk. What you are doing is bad, evil, and wrong. And it's technically illegal under the DMCA as well, because you're breaking encryption. No, an employee agreement that says you can monitor their computer use doesn't get you past the DMCA.

Fuck you and all the places that do this. If I were asked to implement such a thing at my job I'd raise all hell and strike.

Why would they use a certificate in a clean install? I've said this many times irl. I HATE DELL
