I don't see how it can be made less dangerous. The QR code is read and decoded to a URL. The QR code is now gone, and it is the URL that is dangrous. The URL is dangerous no matter how you got it.
On mobile devices, you can't hover the mouse pointer over a link to see where you're going. That's subtantially more dangerous than a URL reader which shows you the URL.
