Is there a way that I can bypass cert verification in Requests.jl or HTTP.jl (i.e., as a client),
similar to curl’s -k option?
-k, --insecure
(TLS) By default, every SSL connection curl makes is verified to be secure. This option allows curl
to proceed and operate even for server connections otherwise considered insecure.
The server connection is verified by making sure the server's certificate contains the right name
and verifies successfully using the cert store.
See this online resource for further details:
