True. It probably would take them decades since it's complicated. But they probably would associate patterns in the QR code to urls and text that come up a lot and eventually figure out how to decode QR codes. It would be funny that they would get useless url that provides next to no context.
It also interesting that the ink will probably only last few generations and well after the lives of anyone that cared about the deceased.
There are qr codes made from solid material. Like the material is black and the negative space is White
I wonder if, should they understand pieces of the url if they'll think we were obsessed with weird minimalist poetry or something. Though I wouldn't expect them to even get as far as seeing the urls that we see, considering any non-QR code urls will likely also fade away by then.
Looked into if they had enough qr codes they could fit them into categories based of the version patterns. It would be hard for them to figure out the url without URL below it. They probably will think it's like brail like language or minimalist poetry as you say
