I have no idea what the QR-code might reveal (I could not read it from this picture), so I pixelised it just to be sure.

FWIW I know exactly what happened. To reproduce, boot your device with init=/bin/sh, then type exit.

Kinda neat.

    Those who would like to make extra sure their data stays private.

    Yes, well, exactly. You know not every question is a literal question, right?

    what kinds of data could be considered confidential in said log?

    I was wondering that myself. It’s “the kmsg log”, something to do with kernel mode switching or “graphics”. My guess: the log itself is not problematic, but there might be some metadata added. Or then one creates that metadata by submitting the QR code.
