Whatsapp may ban you :) about propawhat HOT 8 OPEN

I have added more message variations in config.json. I suspect the banning is because they detect repeated sending of the exact same message. Hoping we can crowdsource many more message texts

I see people reporting a ban after 20 to 40 messages. Can we have more messages, or a service like the api.1920.in? Maybe ask the squad for a simple message api like the phone number api?

Good point. I haven't started mass sending messages yet.

Not sure how the e2e encryption exactly works, but I can imagine that with the same algorithm a message could still be recognizable, even encrypted. Facebook is notorious for registering everything they can, except for the actual content of the messages which is encrypted.

Someone else pointed the encryption out to me yesterday @joldnl and my first thought was the same as you. But probablistic encryption means the same message encrypted twice with the same key will result in two different outputs. I think it is a high number of reports in quick succession will get you automatically banned. I don't know of a way around it other than rotating phone numbers once they get bannedm

@t4c So you're saying whatsapp (fb messenger) uses the crypto methods developed by Signal? Do you have any reference of that info if I understand you correct?
