Connecting to local DB via python bolt: Episode II

I read this: Connecting to local database via Python Bolt

I am new to neo4j and am struggling to connect to a local neo4j DB.
I was able to set a new password for the neo4j

What am I doing wrong?

When I run this:

from neo4j import GraphDatabase, basic_auth

_driver = GraphDatabase.driver('bolt://localhost:7687', auth=basic_auth('neo4j', 'pwd'))

print('hurray; connected!')

I get this:

The python driver requires encryption.

This issue is the same as mine:

His fix is to disable encryption. I'll probably do that for now.

A safer fix is to enable and configure an SSL policy, as suggested here:
