What's there to stop them self signing their cert and allowing everyone interested to add it to their certificate store?

  I‘d imagine it’s because the average user is pretty dumb and probably not able/willing to go that extra step of adding a certificate manually.

    I wouldn't say someone is dumb because they don't understand how SSL in the browser works. In the same sense I'm not dumb because I can't perform heart surgery.

      Dumb in the sense of "will not say anything, not complain nor ask question", you know, literally mute.
