What Is QR Code Phishing And Can It Bypass MFA? (2026/728)

QR codes are everywhere. Cafes, parking meters, product packaging. We scan them without thinking, and that habit is exactly what attackers are now exploiting.

QR code phishing, also called quishing, has been flagged by both Google and the FBI in 2026 as a serious threat, and it can bypass multi-factor authentication entirely.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅ What QR codes are and how they became embedded in everyday business
⚡ How QR code phishing uses adversary-in-the-middle proxy servers to steal credentials and session tokens
❗ Why scanning a QR code on your phone bypasses the security tools on your computer
✨ QR codes showing up in Google Calendar invites, not just emails
➡️ Practical steps to protect yourself, including browser choice and verifying login pages

No single tool or habit keeps you safe here. Understanding how these attacks work is more useful than any checklist.

What Can We Learn From SiteGround’s AI Plugin? (2026/726)

When a service provider makes changes to your business infrastructure without your knowledge, who is actually in control? SiteGround’s decision to force-install their own AI agent plugin on over a million WordPress sites alongside the WordPress 7.0 update is a case study in what happens when that line gets crossed.

In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ What SiteGround did with their AI plugin and why it matters for every site owner
✅ The legal exposure you face when customer data leaves your site without your knowledge
✅ How other hosting providers have made similar decisions about your infrastructure
⚡ Why “we emailed you” is not the same as consent
✅ The difference between informing someone and deciding for them
❗ What questions to start asking your hosting provider about what they’ve installed and why
