How to bypass pyTelegramBotApi blocking?

Question

Python

I'm trying to create my own bot.

Here is the code (primitive):

```
import telebot

TOKEN = "1281028963:AAFMmSTSnau1Q776wxpeYsDIuwWx_MDCtVo"

bot = telebot.TeleBot(TOKEN)

from telebot import apihelper

apihelper.proxy = {'https' : ' https://174.70.241.18:24404 ' }

@bot.message_handler(content_types = ['text'])
def message(message):
print(message.text)

bot.polling(none_stop = True)
```

Outputs the following:

2020-05-11 13:39:07,126 (util.py:68 PollingThread) ERROR - TeleBot: "ConnectionError occurred, args=(ProtocolError('Connection aborted.', BadStatusLine('\x00[_T\n')),)

How to fix?

Alternatively, use a working proxy:
apihelper.proxy = {'https' : '45.77.146.92:8080'}
