-This installable Python package contains a
-CA Bundle that you can reference in your
-Python code.
+Certifi is a carefully curated collection of Root Certificates for validating the
+trustworthiness of SSL certificates while verifying the identity of TLS hosts.
+It has been extracted from the Requests project.
+
+The internet is an untrusted place. Every HTTP request you make should have
+verification on by default. This happens every time you access a website with
+your web browser, without any knowledge to the user — there’s no reason your code
+should be any different.
+
+Certifi is here to make this possible.
