title: python get-pip.py is giving SNI error - TLS is not available?
body: <p>I am trying to install pip onto my windows laptop by running command <code>python get-pip.py</code> but I am getting the following error: <code>c:\appdata\temp\tmplplp3q\pip.zip\pip\_vendor\urllib3\util\ssl_.py:339: SNIMissingWarning: An HTTPS request has been made, but the SNI (Subject Name Indication) extension to TLS is not available on this platform. This may cause the server to present an incorrect TLS certificate, which can cause validation failures. You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced-usage.html#ssl-warnings</code></p>
  
  <p>My python version is 2.7.9. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks</p>
  
  <p>The suggested duplicate is different to my question as I can't install pip to begin with and the error is given way before I can try to download any package.</p>
