Absolute insanity.

I would have abused this great and terrible power in just the same way he described. Random orders for random tables at random restaurants at random times in small quantities for as long as they aren't protected. Just enough to be an inconvenience/awkward but not enough to raise alarms.

And now I will check every QR code I scan at a restaurant.

That seems kinda fucked up. Why would you do something like that?

I mean, I at least get fucking with people for money. Doing it for fun, not so much

Also, anyone know what they meant with this line?

I still loved my life so I didn't want to use the Google custom search API.

As to the quoted text, I assumed it was a reference to not getting more deeply involved in it that would cause legal issues for himself.
