* The request (the browser) hasn't sent an ``Accept-Encoding`` header
containing ``gzip``.
* The request is from Internet Explorer and the ``Content-Type`` header
contains ``javascript`` or starts with anything other than ``text/``.
We do this to avoid a bug in early versions of IE that caused decompression
not to be performed on certain content types.
You can apply GZip compression to individual views using the
:func:`~django.views.decorators.gzip.gzip_page()` decorator.
