🙄 (Or... you can buy a traditional tag with your pet's name and address and your phone number on it, which DOES NOT REQUIRE someone to scan a QR code and doesn't advertise a company). Or, you could make your OWN QR code tag (which is dumb, as it puts technology in between you and getting your pet back) #technology#excess#pets
@ai6yr This is a perfect example of how tech is actually making our lives more complex and much worse. How is this offering (which I'm sure you have to pay for and have technology to use) any better than just printing a phone number on the tag!?
@aburtch@ai6yr Ah, but it has that ever present word: functionality.
One problem with phone numbers these days is more and more people are doing what I've done for years, whitelist call blocking. All calls are silently rejected except for the few numbers on the list.
@ai6yr
That reminds me that I saw a GPS tracking collar being advertised for pets that looked geared towards people living off-grid in rural areas the other day.
