Baileys VS ipos

This uses Baileys [0] which appears to reverse-engineer the protocol Whatsapp uses for it's web app.

A better approach to this than simply scrolling through chats, is to directly use whatsapp web's api. Obviously writing this yourself takes a long time, so I tested this using this javascript whatsapp web api: https://github.com/adiwajshing/Baileys

I don’t know if this will help, but I recently read (on HN) about a new capability for IP access via SMS:

https://github.com/spandanb/ipos

IP packets contain 20 bytes of headers, the rest is data. Theoretically you could create the world's worst VPN by stuffing the 140 bytes of an SMS absolutely full of binary data, with some compression of course.

So I went looking for "IP over SMS" and actually found this: https://github.com/spandanb/ipos but it's for web browsers only. This old HN thread talks about the same concept: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8304409

You could possibly port something like https://github.com/PiMaker/Teletun to SMS instead of using Telegram. The Python TUN API seems quite elegant to work with, if you can get two SMS capable devices running Linux you can probably set up the world's worst wireless AP.

Some students had the same idea and built a proof of concept: https://www.thomasclausen.net/en/nice-student-project-at-eco...
