title: Axios get response body without decompress in gzip
body: <p>I have 2 express servers, one working as backend resolving queries to DB and the other working as proxy to redirect requests.</p>
  <p>Frontend request every data petition to proxy which, in turn sends a modified request via axios to backend in order to get data results.</p>
  <p>The backend server compress response body in gzip format. However, axios by default decompress the response returned by backend and then sends the original size to frontend.</p>
  <p>I want axios to keep the response compressed so the one in charge of decompress it is user's navigator.</p>
  <p>Is there any option or way to do this?</p>
  <p>EDIT:
  Axios request headers include:</p>
  <pre><code>Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br
  </code></pre>
  <p>However, axios response headers are (without 'Content-Encoding: gzip'):</p>
