Wait, explain the quick coffee bit? You'd let yourself into a random person's house to make coffee?
I think it's the coffee machine at the office

I can't say about "convenient" because I don't use it, but I have been using QR codes for years and I haven't had a single issue. I don't know anyone who has.
QR codes are reliable.
You need an active internet connection to pay via QR.
NFC (EMV) works offline.
Reminds me of some frameworks that did the top to bottom approach.
Yii (PHP) had a code generator that created all the CRUD logic for you. After generation, you could remove the code that you didn't need.
Just to give you another little titbit if you're interested. I work in go to market, and part of that is awareness, and part of that is advertising. Where people use the platform has a huge impact on the prices you pay to advertise on the platform, for example reddit is very expensive because they have a very high mobile traffic population, and the ads can't be blocked, advertising on X is hard because the people I want to reach all pay for premium, so the traffic you get from it now is basically useless, linkedin skews towards desktop, but their targeting is amazing, but because they skew towards desktop people run ad blocks, some platforms let you pick the devices you serve to, some don't, all of it impacts the price you pay to serve the ads.
So, don't do targeted advertising then?
That something useful is turning you into a data cow and making money off of it while returning zero value to you.
Seriously you want people to use your travel and movement and choice data to make a suggestion list of restaurants for you to order from? How helpless are you?
I don't think the problem is these kind of suggestions.
Are people suddenly moving more between corp A and corp B? Must be something going on, let's buy the stock.
Suddenly multiple Ubers are dropping off people at a residential building during the night? They probably know each other. Let's flag that as a potential risk.
If you have the disposable income to pay to remove advertising, you are exactly the market segment advertisers want to reach. They will always be willing to pay to outbid that segment’s own desire to not see ads.
This is very insightful

I'm worried some bad actors are reverse engineering this as well.

Good to know.
You are thinking to much in emoji's and emdashes.

Technically how? In a way that isn't abstract to either parties in the transaction?
Basically you split your bitcoin and send one part to the recipient and one part back to yourself.
For the user there is no way to pay the 0.0000001c that it takes to load a web page, for the web master there is no way to get paid the $10,000 it takes to serve the users. So we settled on advertising which can somewhat cover those costs since each individual add is basically worthless but an add campaign isn't.
One Satoshi is currently worth $0.000713.
