Ah, the threat of the imaginary hackers ("interested parties").
The QR code scanners will probably just be the official app installed on smartphones the venue will need to supply to the security personnel. Who's going to hack this? Banks can already track your credit card payments to figure out your profile, Google can track your location through your phone. Russian, Chinese or North Korean hackers probably don't care about where you spend your evenings.

For people who don't even avoid these easily defeated tracking vectors (with cash and de-googling), sure, vaccine passport tracking won't make a big difference.

Just because you can find a quote you think is profound and attach a name to it, doesn't justify super-paranoia. Do you get out of the house, or are you avoiding the virus? Life's about judging risks and benefits, and IMO you're way overblowing the risk of these hackers. What Andre Breton thinks is irrelevant.
