> Honest question: for what reasons do you ever need to scan a random QR code?

In the past two years, due to COVID, a lot of restaurants and dining establishments got rid of paper menus and left people with "here is a QR code, scan it to see the menu". This is the most common situation I've encountered this in. It wasn't just a few restaurants that did this, it was heavy majority of places here (Seattle).
