[Python] The XML file I download using requests.get is different from when I download using...

Link: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1965040/000112760224010272/

The file I am downloading is form4.xml

The code I use is:

import requests
headers = {
'User-Agent': 'sec_datascrape',
'From': 'myemail@gmail.com',
'Accept': 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8',
}
url = "https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1965040/000112760224010272/form4.xml"

r = requests.get(filing_href, headers=headers)
with open('data.xml', 'wb') as f:
f.write(r.content)


The content I get from the code above is very different from when I download directly using the link from the Firefox web browser. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

A snippet of the data I get:
