I think I should be allowed to order food from a restaurant without needing to scan a QR code which requires me to have a smart phone and an active, paid plan in order to access their menu.
Yes! My OPT is that people shouldn't have their phones out when you're out for a meal. The whole QR code menu thing forces you to start your outing staring at your phone!
Wait, you mean you're sat down AT the restaurant and you need to get out your phone to view the menus???
Sadly, yes, and just like @PurpleFairy I don't like to get my phone out during meals so it bothers me to start my meals with my girlfriend, friends, or family that way.
But also not everyone has a phone with a paid plan so this is a class and an accessibility issue. And I'm not going to use my phone to scan some random, potentially unsafe QR code. I put in too much work into my digital security to then go and do something like that.
