This issue is very important since it breaks Freedom House page fetching and basically disables new clients from giving consent.
There is no known fixes for it since the TLS ciphers used by Freedom House are too new even for the latest OpenSSL libraries released for the OSes that we are using.
One temporary workaround would be to fetch all possible pages and cache them on the server until a better fix emerges.

Workarounds tried in order to address this problem (without success):
Choosing SSL version in requests
Force-wrapping all SSL sockets
