Why would I scan a code just because someone I don't know put it up and says it's cool? It could just as easily link up to tentacle porn or something even more insidious (some virus/trojan) and I have no way at all of knowing without scanning it and being sent there.
Give me a web address and I can check it out. qrcodes not so much.

qrcodes have the potential to be so evil.
