LAWYER: How Cops Can Use QR Codes to Search Your Home


Listen Later

You see a flyer from your local police department. Friendly colors. A badge. A QR code that says, "Free House Checks While You're on Vacation." Seems helpful, right?

But what if scanning that code meant giving police access to your home, your cameras, your data — and your legal rights? What if it opened the door to a kind of surveillance you didn’t even know you’d agreed to?

Here’s what makes this more urgent: police departments across the country are doing this right now. In this episode, I’m breaking down:

1. Exactly how these QR Code Community Programs work,

2. What you might be unknowingly agreeing to when you scan these QR Codes, and

3. Why even well-intentioned sign-ups can turn into constitutional nightmares that cost you your privacy and freedom.
