If you spoof your user agent, or use IE11, you don't get redirected to the "crying" page (the page uses 301 redirection BTW).

  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko

Also worth noting, an excerpt from the IE blog[1]:

  Obviously, maintaining Compatibility View Lists requires a significant investment
  on the part of the IE team—resources which could be used to implement more
  new standards, performance improvements, etc. Please please please: use
  feature detection rather than User-Agent sniffing.

If the IE team doesn't want people to use UA sniffing, they should teach by example.
