Anti-Vaxxer Hijacks QR Codes At COVID-19 Check-In Sites (threatpost.com) 117
schwit1 shares a report from Threatpost: Quick-response (QR) codes used by a COVID-19 contact-tracing program were hijacked by a man who simply slapped up scam QR codes on top to redirect users to an anti-vaccination website, according to local police. He now faces two counts of "obstructing operations carried out relative to COVID-19 under the Emergency Management Act," the South Australia Police said in a statement announcing the arrest. His arrest may just be a drop in the bucket: Reports of other anti-vax campaigners doing the same thing abound. Law enforcement added an additional warning to would-be QR code scammers: "Any person found to be tampering or obstructing with business QR codes will likely face arrest and court penalty of up to $10,000." The police said no personal data was breached, but the incident highlights that truly all an attacker needs is a printer and a pack of Avery labels to do real damage.
In this case, the QR codes were being used by the South Australian government's official CovidSafe app to access a device's camera, scan the code and collect real-time location data to be used for contact tracing in case of a COVID-19 outbreak, ABC News Australia reported. That's a lot of personal data linked to a single QR code just waiting to be stolen. "In this instance, people who scanned the illegitimate QR code were redirected to a website distributing misinformation from the anti-vaxxer community," Bill Harrod, vice president of public sector at Ivanti, told Threatpost. "While this is concerning, the outcome could have been far more perilous."

This is a fallacy. Earlier someone responded to one of my posts about the virus in the US by saying basically "blah blah blah blah blah it doesn't matter because some fence hopper is going to show up coughing and ruin it for everyone again". Which is kind of true. It takes anticipation and determination to contain the spread of this disease. We can't get half the country on board with either of those in the US, so we're kind of shot in the foot in the first place. Hell I have family members who won't get vaccinated because they believe it's made out of babies (yeah get this - they believe the vaccine is made from literal babies, Trump is trying to completely take credit for all of the vaccine everywhere like he developed it himself, and they're full on Trump supporters... I can't even). But countries who have populations that give a shit about each other, like New Zealand and Australia (and Vietnam, who border China), or very restrictive governments like well China (after their initial massive spread), are doing fairly well at containing spread from positive cases when they pop up, which allows them to otherwise almost ignore it in their daily lives, except the damage it does to their trade partners through their supply chain.
