> As for the issue with the QR codes packaged with the toys, some on Twitter suggested that the "unintended search results" obtained when the codes were scanned outside of the McDonald's app were of an inappropriate sort, though McDonald's has neither confirmed nor denied that claim.

Interesting if true, an inside job, no?
