    Went to the beach the other day. The paid parking lot had a sign saying that a day pass was required, and could be purchased online. The lot’s wifi SSID and password were also printed (No cell service), so you could do it right there on your phone. But the URL to the payment page wasn’t there. Only a QR code.

    Is there something wrong with me if I want to be able to just type the address of the payment page into my phone, the same way I typed in the wifi password? Why is obfuscating or hiding important details like this becoming the norm?
