@Ranchonyx Heh, I just ported it to an ESP32. Had to change like 3 lines of code. Impressively consistent APIs.

@Ranchonyx I went ahead and pushed the files needed to make this. The code isn't hard, but it did take some figuring out to get the captured portal working IIRC.

It might make more sense to upload the files to the device instead of embedding like I did. I guess I could figure that out next. I guess this repo might end up being useful. -
vane110523yChange your wifi name to free-internet. Make page with title “take a selfie to access internet” with a button that would launch camera and take picture . Expect people taking selfies. Profit - you know your neighborhood without going out.

I think I may have shared this a while back. Just played with this a little for fun. I was playing with an ESP8266. Apparently it takes very little code to turn it into an access point and have it redirect to a landing page just like a hotel wifi does. Every platform I had connect to the AP seemed to work properly. I setup the AP without a password and let people log in. I named the AP "Virus Distribution Point". Here is what they would see:

Don't mind the name of the repo. It is a junk repo I made for making mom jokes.
