General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
WuzAPI is an implementation of the @tulir/whatsmeow library as a simple RESTful API service with multiple device support and concurrent sessions.
Whatsmeow does not use Puppeteer on headless Chrome, nor an Android emulator. It communicates directly with WhatsApp’s WebSocket servers, making it significantly faster and much less demanding on memory and CPU than those solutions. The drawback is that any changes to the WhatsApp protocol could break connections, requiring a library update.
Using this software in violation of WhatsApp’s Terms of Service can get your number banned: Be very careful—do not use this to send SPAM or anything similar. Use at your own risk. If you need to develop something for commercial purposes, contact a WhatsApp global solution provider and sign up for the WhatsApp Business API service instead.
