Refererr

[borja]

Hello
 I've configurated a QR code that sends me to a web called https://mydomain.com/pdf and in the httpd.config I've got a redirect to a public file in jdownloads.


 The problem is that I have to change the "hotlink protection" to "no" because no refererer was sent or there was a problem with the permision to acccess to the file.

 If i do the same operation with a camara instead google lenses , it works properly with hotlink protection with yes.
  what is the difference between accessing with google lens ot a camara? What are the risks of having disabled the "hotlink protection"? What should i do to activate again "hotlink protection"?
