In my experience, the notification you see at the end of article was used to advertise your brand/site.

The number of obnoxious people/guerilla ad companies that printed and programmed NFC tags and stuck them in random places was way too high. In some cases, they would replace the businesses QR code with the NFC tag. In some cases that NFC notification would pop up instead of the business’s menu. Quite annoying.

Then there was a case where the person stuck the raw tags _under the table_, so putting your phone down in random places would spam this notification on your screen.

Ah, we did the under-the-table thing with NFC stickers in school! Love rickrolling a well-placed phone on a classroom desk lol.

I'm personally not a huge fan of needing to use NFC tags in the real world (parking meters use them for payment around here), but I do like creating tags.
