Avast is inspecting my encrypted traffic and I'm not ok with that

I noticed an Avast upgrade available a few days ago. It's likely months old but I don't always pay attention. I figured what the heck, lets upgrade! Shortly after I noticed Chrome was taking a little too long to connect to sites. It would pause on "Establishing secure connection..." I thought nothing of it, figured it was my ISP.

I mentioned earlier that I don't always pay attention. I was showing my Mom how to check if a website is encrypted and I was completely floored when I notice Google's root CA was Avast something or other. What the holy F?! You bastards! This is why Chrome has been taking so long to connect! You've been inspecting all my encrypted traffic! ARG! Too far bro, too far.

So on to uninstalling. And the search for a new AV vendor begins!
