    QR codes just aren’t made for security. They shouldn’t be used anywhere security is required.

    I get what you’re saying but it’s at least a little bit funny that they are regularly used for security in the form of scan to login (e.g. Steam), verify your session (e.g. Matrix), etc. Of course these are in a closed ecosystem so the QR code itself is not the security. But I just found it funny you said that when 90% of my QR code usage is for security.
