Waking up to a lot of bad takes on QR codes. QR codes are meant to be scanned, just as links are meant to be clicked. If your security posture requires these two things to not happen you have already lost. Blaming the user here is Dunning-Kruger riddled infosec posing.


Terraform is my ideal way to express this
