Bot feito para estudos de leitura de imagem
A bot for automating votes on Brazil's Big Brother Brasil TV show via the Globo/GShow platform. It was built as a study project for image reading — likely captcha bypass. Useful as a learning exercise; not useful for anything else.
The repo is honest about what it is — a study project, no pretense of being production software. It's simple enough (six source files) that someone learning Node.js automation can read the whole thing in an afternoon. The bat scripts make it approachable for Windows-first users who wouldn't know how to run Node from a terminal.
Abandoned since 2022 — the target platform has almost certainly changed its auth flow, so it probably doesn't work at all anymore. No tests, no error handling worth mentioning, and the 'image reading' angle from the description doesn't show up in any meaningful way in the code. The 419 stars are purely from BBB hype, not from technical merit — there's nothing here a developer would learn from that isn't covered better by any Puppeteer tutorial.
