Is there a problem making a fork and someone else taking this? It seems that their problem was the license server requirement and not the repo itself. Otherwise the github repo would have been taken down. No? We have not attempted to fix this because we are hoping for a fork to run with it. From a technical perspective I can't imagine it will be difficult to fix. The license on github seems to be quite forgiving so I don't think there is a problem doing this. Many countries also protect your ability to use your account as you wish such that the use of this should be protected. The issue is making money even a small amount or these days even an email list is considered valuable and a form of profit.

FYI, we are a non profit with a live bot. The only thing keeping our bot running is we haven't restarted it or the server. This is obviously temporary and we must solve it. We will not do the fork as we don't have time to manage it but we would be willing to contribute from time to time. We would also be willing to make the first commit to allow bypassing the license server. If someone thinks that the bypass would be a problem with the license then let me know. I don't see a problem as long as the code is on github.

The patches.json (where most of the WAPI function are) is obfuscated, you can't really just fork it and expect it to work, you still need to figure out these first. Of course you can still do it but it'll take some work, i'd recommend you to find another library like wweb.js or Baileys, you can reduce your work by moving to Venom, it have a very similar syntax with open wa!

Edit : add Venom
