cURL issue using laravel 5

when I use curl to get the content of an html page, I got a wired content which look like a script. Can you tell me what's wrong with my code, and what is this wired content ?

There is my controller :

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
    CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
    CURLOPT_URL => 'https://twitter.com',
));

$data = curl_exec($curl);
dd($data);
curl_close($curl);

And there is what it's look like in the console.

Thank you for all of your answers.

Do not use dd() to print the $data variable,

Use print_r or var_dump to see the exact response returned by curl.

Its the dd that adds extra JS to the output

Here is a better code to do this :

$url="https://twitter.com";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
$result=curl_exec($ch);
print_r($result);

Well, thanks for your help, now it works !

At the first try it didn't, but then I just deleted those two lines : curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent); and $agent= 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)'; and know everything is okay.
