Hi,

I am still getting:

Certificate information
  Issued by:          Let's Encrypt Authority X3
  Issued to:          CN=elpa.gnu.org
  Hostname:           elpa.gnu.org
  Public key:         RSA, signature: RSA-SHA256
  Session:            TLS1.3, key: ECDHE-RSA, cipher: AES-256-GCM, mac:
AEAD
  Security level:     Medium
  Valid:              From 2019-08-07 to 2019-11-05

The TLS connection to elpa.gnu.org:443 is insecure
for the following reason:

* safe renegotiation is not supported, connection not protected from
impersonators
