This globally-enforced move to HTTPS is killing the security and privacy for home projects and intranet-hosted websites. If Google forces HTTPS everywhere, and refuses to accept "self signed HTTPS certs", then there is no path left for security-camera/home-automation/staticIP-family-websites without being forced into going over the internet. I can't even show my projects to my non-technical friends without looking like some scammer because of these dumb warning messages plastered all over their browsers on my own wifi!

Chrome team: Either start accepting self-signed certs for LAN, or drop forced HTTPS for intranet altogether -- I DO NOT want to put my family's or my personal-project data on the internet!
