title: Is there really no way to prevent Invoke-WebRequest from following redirections
body: <p>It seems the <code>Invoke-WebRequest</code> cmdlet provides no way to inspect redirecting responses (by saying "don't follow redirections"). This would make the <code>curl</code>-alias not only ridiculous but even more than superfluous. </p>
  
  <p>Can anybody spare me this disappointment?</p>
