Hi Team,

I am trying to verify URLs using urllib3 library.
For secure URLs, using 'https://'. I am getting a ststus code of 403.

when the URL is 'http://google.com'

>>> import urllib3
>>> http = urllib3.PoolManager()
>>> r = http.request('GET', 'http://google.com')
>>> r.status
403

when the URL is 'https://google.com'

>>> import urllib3
>>> http = urllib3.PoolManager()
>>> r = http.request('GET', 'https://google.com')

Error:
raise MaxRetryError(_pool, url, error or ResponseError(cause))

MaxRetryError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.google.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL] unknown protocol (_ssl.c:833)'),))

Could you please guide in this.
