Can you navigate to the Burger King website in a MacDonalds?

Should be the same thing, no?

May not be quite the same. Navigating to Burger King website in McDonalds requires the user to take an explicit action to do so, Always-on geo-located AR may not require user consent (unless it's designed that way which may defeat the purpose of Ads).
