C# HTTP GET request synchronous example

HttpGetRequestSync.cs

using System.Net.Http;

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    var url = "http://google.com/api-example";
    var response = client.GetAsync(url).Result;

    if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
        // by calling .Result you are performing a synchronous call
        var responseContent = response.Content; 

        // by calling .Result you are synchronously reading the result
        string responseString = responseContent.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;

        Console.WriteLine(responseString);
    }
}

Isn't calling .Result a potential source for deadlocks and AsyncBridge should be used instead?

Yes, coincidently watched this today - found it very interesting and insightful.
