inetc / ssl problem

Hello,

I'm bit stuck with trying to avoid an ssl warning when retrieving a
HTTPS page like that:

ssl:start(),
inets:start(),
Url = "https://www.heise.de/newsticker",
{ok, {{_, 200,__}, _,  Contents}} =
	httpc:request(get,
		      {Url, []},
		      [{ssl, [{verify, verify_none}]}],
		      []).

getting that:
=WARNING REPORT==== 2-Sep-2021::13:46:08.010679 ===
Description: "Authenticity is not established by certificate path validation"
     Reason: "Option {verify, verify_peer} and cacertfile/cacerts is missing"
...


What's the reason the warning won't go away with the ssl verify option -
where's my fault?

Thanks in advance
Eckard
