Wow, great job in figuring this out. Passing the context, it works here too.

I just wanted to add, that I looked at this with Wireshark, and to not complicate things, first tried plain HTTP.

```
$ curl http://jitsi.molgen.mpg.de
<html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/1.14.2</center>
</body>
</html>
```

With Python, there is also the connection lost error. But Wireshark shows that the 301 HTTP packet is send back by the server.

```
