That’s not the point of the QR code. The point is Google is requiring a certified Google account and phone to allow access. Privacy-based phones are not welcome. I would suggest closing the tab when these pop up.
reCAPTCHA Mobile Verification is the section at the bottom that’s relevant.
Yikes. I was imagining they were only trying to trick people into using their phones that could be tracked (in addition to jumping through arbitrarily placed hoops in the traditional captcha style) not that they were actually requiring a phone running Google spyware. That’s insane.
As we know, only humans are capable of reading QR codes.
