There are thousands of sites with untrusted certificates. Why pay
$10000 or more a year to Verisign or whoever just so you can run a
service for the community. (And then of course Verisign pays MS to
have it included in the certificates distributed with Windows.)

You are using Fedora, what do you think is going to happen if you
import their certificate? I can assure you, the world will not come to
an end.
