Here's another privacy issue and extra-carefulness is always needed!
There are a lot of people who use QR codes to share different data (also to share bitcoin or other cryptos) from their smartphones and the article below states the risks of using QR codes.

This is not about bitcoin security, It is a user's responsibility to be careful not to use some random QR code generator from 3rd party and suspicious websites. In fact, Almost all bitcoin wallets have built-in QR code generator why use these untrusted generators? This article news does not make sense and has nothing to do with bitcoin security.
