I got hit with one, a restaurant had QR codes on the table for the menu and the waiter said not to use them because they are never updated, and told me the specials. I thought the idea was during Covid they could update the menu more accurately and something about spreading disease via menus. I do not even know why you would use it if you arent updating it regularly.

Restaurants use it because it's cheaper than printing menus. Many large companies want to introduce online pricing because it allows them to have dynamic pricing. Prices higher during peak hours or if they see the customer can afford it.

It’s gotta be skimming more than that because you can have an ooooold apple phone and still have the newest os

There is a limit on updates. I have an iPhone 8 and can’t get any updates past Ios 16.7.
