TLS verification for some reason is disabled by default globally by the download package. This is done at init, which means simply importing the package has the very dangerous, unexpected side effect of removing TLS verification for any http client elsewere in the codebase using the default http client. Rather than disable TLS verification globally at init time, instead do it as part of the bootstrap/run process so that applications using this module do not inadvertently decrease their security.
