Simple. It could add a white border so I don't have to screenshot it with one when needing to use it on a dark background. Even has "Options" for those concerned about privacy around the extension using an on-line URL shortener: just uncheck the "Dynamic QR".

I don't appreciate that this extension's behavior was discreetly changed to generate a shortened link instead of the full address bar. This creates privacy concerns and also runs counter to the name of the extension as the default behavior is now no longer offline. I'll be looking for a different QR code extension.
