Hey Attila, 

Not to worry - if you can even manage to capture some of the details given, 
such as the request/response of a sample incident, the URL, etc., that 
could be enough. We have had issue reports of requesting gzip and not 
receiving it, but as far as I know, this has not been reported. It's worth 
mentioning that it technically follows the RFC doc 
<https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html>:

If no Accept-Encoding field is present in a request, the server MAY assume 
> that the client will accept any content coding. In this case, if "identity"

So, setting "accept-encoding: identity" for curl should resolve this.

Cheers!
