I haven't tried it either, but many big name sites use certificate pinning to avoid the attacking form of this MITM.

A manually trusted cert overrides pinning, it's only protecting against certs signed by another of the default installed certs (otherwise Google and others simply wouldn't work in many corporate environments).
