Dear assholes at Mozilla.
A self-signed certificate does not mean "the connection is not encrypted."
The connection is over TLS, it is using a certificate, the bits are encrypted. My internal network not paying money to a cert authority to be identified and numbered by the beast does not make this not encrypted.
Stop hiding the HTTPS and stop lying to serve your corporate paymasters.
