Does .NET’s HttpWebResponse uncompress automatically GZiped and Deflated responses?

I found the answer.

You can change the code to:

var request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(requestUri);
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;

And you will have automatic decompression. No need to change the rest of the code.
