Easier than getting the app team to fix their TLS.
Or the corporate IT team to remove their TLS-trashing MITM attack (because their Firewall Vendor claims that's still "Best Practice" in 2023 and/or the C-Suite loves employee surveillance).
Just be sure to try running the program with sudo first, before trying shitty solutions like that.
That seems insecure; just chmod -R 777 /
At least node has a variable to disable checks globally.
