It's hard to understand what you're talking about when you aren't clear what you're talking about. This particular QR code does encode the URL next to it, that is true. That does not mean "the URL is the QR code". They are two separate things.
And to further clarify, the URL next to the QR code is NOT a link to an image of the QR code. As I posted in another comment, it is a link to a giant image of some person's insane story.
