When you're a guest at a friend's house, for example, you would have no problem installing their root CA in exchange for the privilege of using their network? Wouldn't you find that to be a little bit antisocial or overbearing?

I don’t need to install their root CA unless I specifically want to access any LAN services.

Most people are not interested in that and so don’t need to add any new CA.

Most people borrow the WiFi so they can check their WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok etc. None of which requires adding any new CA.

s/unless/even if/

No, I meant what I said.

Well, I guess you could deal with the TLS warnings instead.

But I prefer to install the CA cert so that the TLS connections are seen as valid.
