None of this has anything to do with QR codes. A QR code can no more read your data than a URL written on a piece of paper. Scanning a QR code is completely benign unless using software that automatically follows links. I don't know of any such software.
I already read your mind plus all of your bank account information because you read my comment. Or at least that's what people here seem to think a QR code can do.
You are getting way too literal. Like saying a digital camera doesn’t actually take a picture but a series of code that forms a picture. What a waste of time and brainwaves.
A digital camera does take a picture, and then encodes that picture in one of several compressed image formats. The image formats generally do not contain code. I'm not sure what your point is.
Not sure why you're being downvoted... you're correct. A QR code is just text, your phone then decide what to do with that text, but it's just text nonetheless.

Dude, they can actually read you mind when you stare at your phone screen. Don't fall for their tricks.
That would explain the weird ads I get
Well the algorithms make it seem so.
Okay, I’m going to need more.
Lol

A QR code is not a URL. A QR code contains arbitrary text which may include a URL. Every URL is suspect. That is nothing to do with QR codes.
Semantics.
If you're scanning the qr code you're probably clicking a link, right?
That's exactly my point. It's two separate things. Scanning a QR code doesn't do anything but extract the text it contains.

I'm getting downvoted because this site's full of idiots who refuse to admit when they're wrong.
A URL is text. A QR code encodes text. That's it.
