http://ow.ly/6fnJJArticle by Bill Tolson appearing on eDiscovery 101 website.
This interesting article discusses the use of QR codes, which are bar codes that can be scanned to transmit various types of messages, such as writing messages, audio files, video files, and links to websites.
QR codes are not generally processed by eDiscovery software, and could be used to hide information that the sender does not wish to be found during the discovery process. This is something eDiscovery vendors need to become aware of, and develop protocols for. A scan of the QR bar code would reveal the contents of the message, but for most part scanning these QR codes is not part of best practices for eDiscovery processing. In the near future, eDiscovery processing will likely require that these QR codes be scanned to reveal their contents.
